The current design challenge by Spoonflower is themed “painting”.
Read the press release below.
A hobby near and dear to many creative hearts, painting takes on so many forms, techniques, and mediums — and in many ways it is the foundation of design.
Watercolor, acrylic, oil, tempera, gouache, tempura. Abstract, impressionist, photo-realistic — there’s something for everyone! Entries will be previewed at the fat quarter size: 21″ x 18.”
Painting Details
- The deadline for entries is Tuesday, January 17, 2017 at 3 PM EDT.
- Designs will be previewed at 150 DPI in a fat quarter size (21” x 18”) on the voting ballot.
