The Printmaker is a most peculiar being... delights in deferred gratification and in doing what does not come naturally. He [she] takes pleasure in working backward or in opposites: the gesture that produces a line of force moving to the right prints to the left, and vice versa; a deeply engraved trench in a copper or zinc plate prints as a depression in the paper. Left is right. Right is left. Backward is forward. The Printmaker... must see at least two sides to every question. Jules Heller. EACH ARTIST MAY SUBMIT 2 PIECES PER ENTRY FOR THE EXHIBITION

Under the artist's direction fasteners of every sort become the strings that hold the universe together. In the artist's eyes just stuff gets a freshen-up, elocution rises to aesthetics, and knowledge proves from nothing. Not one thing is safe from the assemblage artist's beady once-over... and the world beholds an alien object. James Head, Hyperbolic Chambers of Art

I don't want to specify what sort of thing I'm looking for here because I don't want to limit your creative gray matter. If you can e-mail it to me then it's submittable. The only limit is no written works. Sorry. Lot's of reasons for this but simple time constraints alone make it hard to read other people's stories. Email your content to us with the word "Contest" in the subject line. The contest ends April 30th and then a few weeks after that my judges and I will pick one work as the Grand Prize Winner who will receive their choice of *EITHER* 1) a Wacom Tablet *OR* 2) a copy of Photoshop Lightroom as well as this color calibration thing as well as a Spyder3 Elite *OR* 3) a copy of Adobe Illustrator. Sorry for the caps but I need to make sure people don't think they can win all of these things.
