Does this imply you have a BFA? If so you could apply to the Vienna academy - they got a line of study that favors realistic art. Many other academies favor no-skill art with strong concept. It will be very hard for a realistic painter to get accepted at any academy. They don't favour that kind of art at all.

Grants favors those who have a BFA and MFA even more.

Not every censored competition is the same. You have to know from their previous exhibitions what kind of art they want.

Portrait competitions like the Nordic Portrait Competition favors realistic art a lot more than other competitions. See portraet.nu for their exhibition catalogs.

My point is this: everything gets easier with a BFA or MFA degree.

Make a website with your work (no listed prizes), CV and your contact info.

It dosn't sound good that you change between your styles this often. Galleries, etc want to be able to pin an expression or style to their artists.
If you make a portfolio with a lot of different styles you will most likely come off a someone who is confused to which way you want to go, artistically.

I definitely will, the question is what does it give you.

What does a BFA or MFA give you? Byers and gallerists see a degree as a form of security; your knowhow of the basics of the artworld, how to do artiststatements plus a lot more of the tools the academies gives you - its a quality stamp.

It opens a lot of doors.
