FAQ

Hi everyone! I've been getting some questions lately about the book/artwork. This post will be the beginning of a FAQ, so please check here if you have questions. And if they're not answered, you can either email me or Grace  at mp.artbook2010@gmail.com or simply post here on the blog.

1. Does my artwork need to be in a certain style?
No. As long as your piece represents "horror" to you, then anything is fine. We want this interpretation to be completely up to the artist. That being said, we are looking for finished pieces, not sketches or doodles.

2. What size do my pieces need to be?
The short answer is 6.625 x 10.25 in. The long answer is here.

3. When is my piece due?
May 20th, (Friday) 2011

4. Will I get a free copy of the book if I'm a contributing artist?
No. Unfortunately since this is a very small print run, Grace or I have no way to get freebie copies. We'll be buying our own copies, too.

5. If I want to make prints of the artwork I've submitted, will I be able to?
Yes! You retain all rights to your artwork. We do ask though that you do not exhibit (online or elsewhere) the pieces you've created specifically for "Midnight Phantasmagory" until after the book is published. Once the book goes "live" you are free to showcase your piece(s) anywhere.


6. Can I submit photography?
No. We are looking for illustrations/drawings/paintings and the like. If you have a photomanipulation, or are not sure if your piece would qualify, please email Grace and I directly: mp.artbook2010@gmail.com

7. Can I include a brief note about my piece and the medium used along with the title?
We specifically want the title of your piece first, and if you can keep to 1 or 2 sentences, a brief description along with the medium.

8. How many pieces are required?
Each artist needs to be able to commit to at least 2 pieces, and no more than 5.
