Catherine Taylor, Senior Project Editor at London-based books publisher Flame Tree is looking for submissions for their brand new fantasy artbook. They recently made a fantastic book, Dragon Art (UK edition publication delayed until August this year – ISBN 978-1-84786-300-3; US edition published by Barnes & Noble – 9781435117716), and they are now making another in the same series: Fantasy Art – this time covering knights, warriors, wizards, fantasy beasts and perhaps some landscapes, in classic awe-inspiring, dark, dynamic fantasy style.
As before, as well as giving examples of classics and masters, they want to showcase the latest contemporary talent in the genre and so are calling out for anyone who may have relevant works (in digital media – or traditional media, but it must be supplied digitally) that they would like to send in to consider showing in the book – you would of course be fully credited.
They will also pay a small fee of £30 for the use of each artwork, and each artist will of course get a copy of the book.
All submissions must be send by the middle of February.
For any questions on submissions please contact Catherine Taylor cat@flametreepublishing.com. Any big files are better off sent to the following address: cat@foundry.co.uk, or she can provide the details of their FTP site where images can be uploaded.
Good luck everyone!

Muramasa: The Demon Blade is a videogame developed exclusively for the Wii. It attracts my attention because of the stunning visuals and art direction. It reminds me of good old days playing Gods (anyone remember Bitmap Brothers?) and other classic arcades. The game has a very distinguish style drawn from Japanese mythology.
While browsing the official website I saw fan art contest announcement. If you’re happen to live in US and at least 18 years old you can participate and maybe win. The organizers are looking for some amazing artists to create Muramasa-inspired Japanese-style fan art. The submission deadline is set to September 1, 2009 11:59 p.m. PST and there are plenty of time. For more details and rules, please, visit the Muramasa website (look for fanart tag):

Nowadays Internet grants an amazing power both to artists and Art Directors (AD). Recently I’ve stumbled onto a blog running by Senior Art Director at Dungeons & Dragons® Wizards of the Coast, Jon Schindehette. That’s amazing how much ADs you can find these days online at blogspot, twitter or facebook. And most important, there are great opportunities to showcase your work or get a portfolio review.

CGEvent is coming closer! If you aren’t familiar with CGEvent it’s a largest computer graphics conference held in Moscow, Russia. On the official website you can find more info on the upcoming event as well as a 2-days schedule (July 11-12). I’m volunteering offsite a little this year, so the 2D art section is quite small comparing to previous events.

Final submissions are due no later than July 31 2009 (central standard time).
