About
In light of ongoing global conflicts, our competition recognizes the imperative of advocating for 'Peace.'
This year's event transcends mere celebration of artistry; it stands as a beacon for unity, harmony, and a collective aspiration towards a more peaceful world. Contestants are encouraged to incorporate the theme of 'Peace' into their works, as submissions aligned with this theme will be awarded bonus points by the judges.
Sparmax is committed to providing the best airbrushing experience, over the years we have collaborated with some of the top companies, brands, and artists in the world to bring quality, industry-leading products for airbrushing.
In 2016 we started our first Sparmax International Airbrush Competition, offering creator submissions in categories including Fine Art: Realism, Fine Art: Fantasy, Automobile, Hobby/Model, and an additional Junior category in 2022.
In the past few years, we have received thousands of excellent works from more than 30 countries, and have also created a great volume of buzzes on social media.
