The award generates an exhibition of finalist work that numbers over 500 artworks. Artists compete for the $33,000 prize pool, with a $20,000 acquisitive cash prize for the winning landscape entry. “We have had entries from every state in Australia” says Sam Sinner, Event Director. “It’s testament to the reputation of The Doyles as an excellent vehicle for showcasing Australia’s artistic talent, in a representational style. Representational art is our focus, a style that requires high level technical skill to pull off well and it is also a style that most people can relate to regardless of age and stage.” Sam goes on to say that this does not mean the exhibition is full of traditional ‘drover style’ artworks. There is a huge variety of ways to visualise our landscape, as well as our people and our things. It’s a joy to wander through the exhibition and be surprised by the interpretations. “Of particular note this year are the excellent submissions in the junior categories. It’s encouraging to see organisations like The Doyles inspire and offer opportunity for recognition in our creative youth. I think the future Gold Coast art scene is in good hands and I applaud the art teachers who have supported these students.” Says Sam. The Doyles Art Award is a not for profit organisation, run by volunteers. Entry is free, with the option to donate a coin or two to support the award. Categories include Landscape, Still Life, Figurative, Juniors and All Abilities. The Doyles finalists will be on display at the Firth Park Community Centre, Somerset Drive Mudgeeraba (look for Mudgeeraba Community Centre on Google Maps). The exhibition runs from 3rd July to the 13th of July 2025. Open from 10am-5pm. For further details visit www.thedoylesaward.com.au The Doyles Art Award 2025
