The Welsh Artist of the Year award is an annual art competition in Cardiff's St David's Hall, open to amateur and professional artists who have a link to Wales. It has been running annually since 2000.〔(Welsh Artist of the Year ), BBC Wales (blog), 23 June 2010. Retrieved 2013-08-23.〕〔("Noms open for Welsh Artist of the Year" ), ''Buzz Magazine'', 3 February 2010. Retrieved 2013-08-23.〕〔("Welsh artist of the year" ), Axis artists' database. Retrieved 2013-09-06.〕 The competition has become a significant feature in the Welsh visual arts calendar, possibly due to the prestige associated with the title ''Welsh Artist of The Year''. However the title's relationship with the actual competition structure could be seen as misleading, firstly because the selection process requires the artist to submit an application form and pay an entry fee (therefore ''only'' participating artists can be considered). The selection is also limited to one artwork per artist and that artwork is limited in size, rather than considering an artist's entire contribution for the year, which the title may suggest.〔("Welsh Artist of the Year review" ), Vulgar Culture website.

Prizes handed out in Painting, Drawing, Sculpture, Photography, Applied arts categories as well as a Student prize. An overall winner and runner-up prize are awarded.〔("Welsh Artist of the Year 2013 is announced" ), WalesOnline, 9 June 2013. Retrieved 2013-08-23.〕 Winners are chosen by a judging panel composed mainly of fellow artists,〔("Sarah Ball named Welsh Artist of the Year 2013" ), a-n.co.uk, 11 June 2013.
