I posted this in vinyl artist forums but though some of you might be interested to try as well.
To start things off.
I am about to open an online store that focuses on vinyl, toys, shirts and art prints.
We will be doing vinyl and toy sales first and in the next couple of months while we finish setting up the equipment we will be making our own art prints, shirts and offering printing services.
So onto the contest.:
To help some artists of the Vinyl community gain exposure we decided to hold a contest for you to come up with a design for a silk screen print. 5 artists will be selected. The design will be printed in a limited run of 30, and be numbered.
Rule:
The design must be design digitally with photoshop or illustrator.
You can use up to 4 spot colors or at little as 2.
The contest will go on for about a month (final date pending) all are welcome to enter.
There is no theme, just produce a work that identifies with your style since it will be used as a vehicle to help promote you as an artist.
Say whatever you want to say. You can be as R-Rated as you want.
The paper size will be agreed upon after the winners are chosen.
Design a work in resolution high enough to be used on a tabloid sized paper. Some works may be printed on paper as small as a postcard.
The prize:
A print run of 30 numbered Hand silk screened prints.
15 go to our store and 15 including the numbered (1) print will be given to the designer to sell for their profit and exposure.
Please email entries to info@offensivetheory.com or PM me with a link if the image. Please send Jpegs. Winners will be asked to send a working ai, eps or ps file after the contest is over.
If you have any questions post here or PM me.
Good luck.
Legal:
(Rules may chance at any time. No purchase necessary. Prize has no cash value. The prize is a LIMITED hand printed run and numbered by the printer. The designer may be asked to modify the design to accommodate the silk screening process. The designer will receive half the run with no shipping cost within the USA. A winner from outside the USA may be asked to pay the difference in the shipping fee. The designer will get the print numbered 1 and the other 14 will be randomly selected. The other half of the run will be sold at our store. All proceeds from sales at our store will go to our printing company. Only profits from the sale of you half of the run you are awarded will be rights of the designer. If the designer has no means to sell their prints, they can opt to sell them through our store with a agreement of taxes and commision deducted. Rights of the design belong to the artist who created it but the design may not be reproduced via the same silk screen process or of the same colors to prevent conflict with a limited run. By submitting a design you agree to the rules and give permission to our company to produce this limited run if your design is selected.)
