The beautiful magazines we read need constant new material for articles and amazing projects to photograph and write about. If you have ever wondered what they are looking for, Stampington & Company spells it out for you line by line and with dates for submission in their call for art!
I decided to see what challenges or calls might apply to me; what I have worked and what am I creating at the moment that is in the scope of their call for art? I love so many types of art and have tons of ideas-maybe there is a place I might fit in and have some art to submit? Why not me ? Why not you? This publication company lists 25 unique and amazing magazines – each with a list of open calls for artists to submit work for publication. Each of the 25 has about 3 to 5 really amazing challenges that any artist would love to take on!
I am reviewing blog posts, tutorials, photos and creations I have put my effort into that might fit the submission guidelines. I also found intriguing new projects to attempt. Recently, I sent off a Mail Art submission- something I have never done, but fascinates me nonetheless. I have no idea what to expect – but am prepared for rejection. I encourage you as an artist to try a submission to a call for art. I found it so exciting and rewarding.
I wish you happy & productive creating and all the joy that comes with it!
