ARTIST GUIDELINES
Our mission is to
create and produce Jumbo Christian posters that speak to teens
and young adults–as well as a variety of ages. Our work is
inspired by God, contains scripture, glorifies the Lord, and
seeks to minister to all. Praise God!
Type of Work
All art mediums will be considered. The theme should be appropriate
for a Christian poster. Please reference any scripture that
may have inspired each submission.
Transparency/Print/Photocopy
A reproduction of the art must be sent to determine suitability
of work. A transparency (e.g., slide), print (e.g., snapshot
or color photocopy will be sufficient). Do not send original
work. Submit art that has not been published and that is available
for purchase of copyright. Remember to label each submission
in case art is separated from envelope during review. Do not
send irreplaceable items, as we are not responsible for any
damages that may occur to your submission.
Art Notes
It is not necessary, but helpful, to indicate the following
information for each piece of art: 1) size of original; 2)
medium (e.g., oil. watercolor, etc.); 3) who owns the right
to the art; and 4) scriptural reference. Also indicate if
Artist is under current contract.
Art Fees and Rights
Exclusive rights for specific purposes (e.g.; posters), but
not the original work, are purchased for a flat fee, unless
otherwise arranged.
SASE
A SASE (self-addressed stamped envelope) needs to be enclosed
with your submission. Include the proper amount of postage
for return. Include register return receipt form and postage
if that is how you wish to have your submission returned.
Because of the number of submissions we receive daily, ART
SUBMISSIONS WITHOUT A SASE WILL NOT BE RETURNED.
Packaging
Carefully pad the package. Mark “PLEASE DO NOT BEND” on the
outside of the package.
Art Acknowledgement
An art acknowledgement of receipt will be sent to the Artist
on the day that the submission is received.
Art Reviews
Results of reviews will be given in writing 3-4 months after
receipt of artwork. Art is purchased two times a year.
“On File” Submissions
Occasionally, we receive art submissions that we like but
are unable to fit into our product line. In this case, we
notify the Artist and ask permission to keep submissions on
file for one year. Art is reviewed twice a year and the Artist
is informed of the status at each review. If we ask to keep
your work on file, it does not guarantee that we will purchase
the work, only that we are interested in reviewing the work
again at a later date. All “on file” submissions will be returned.
Catalogs
Due to the high cost of printing and the number of requests
we receive, we are unable to send catalogs free of charge.
However, catalogs may be purchased for $3.00. Please check
send check or money order to: InspirationArt & Scripture,
