HEY COOL ARTIST PEOPLE, LISTEN UP! I need your help.

I’m planning on printing something a little experimental for this year’s batch of conventions— a goofy mis-informational zine on power animals, loosely rooted in this Tumblr post I made a while back and inspired by my friend Mad, who used to send me weird books on the subject. Each animal included in the book will have a page-length article written on it, as well as an accompanying illustration. Here’s the kicker, though: I want to see if I can get each animal illustrated by a different cool artist. THAT’S WHERE I NEED YOUR HELP!

Here are the basic parameters of the project:

1. I need one image that involves the power animal of your choice. How you choose to interpret this animal is entirely up to you. If it helps, think of something that would be printed, giant-size, on the front of a tie-dye t-shirt. Or it can be something totally different! Just have fun with it!
2. Nothing too crazy big or complex. These will be printed at minicomic size, and will be shrunk down to fit a 5.5” x 8.5” page.
3. Black and white/grayscale art only, please.
4. The deadline for art is June 2nd, which gives you a solid month from today.

IF YOU WANT TO PARTICIPATE: Note me or e-mail me (or if you know me on AIM or Skype, just TELL me) your top three choices for which animal you’d like to draw for. Here are your choices:

1. Wolf (Light)
2. Wolf (Dark)
3. Fox
4. Cat - RESERVED
5. Raccoon
6. Eagle
7. Possum - RESERVED
8. Horse
9. Turtle
10. Deer - RESERVED
11. Ant
12. Squirrel
13. Panther - RESERVED
14. Snake - RESERVED
15. Raven
16. Bear
17. Mouse
18. Bat - RESERVED
19. Armadillo
20. Dolphin
21. Owl
22. Coyote
23. Rabbit
24. Giraffe
25. Mothman - RESERVED

Reservations are first-come first-serve, so if you see an animal you REALLY want to draw for, be sure to speak up! 

All participants will receive a copy of the finished zine and a heightened sense of spiritual unity with the cosmos. With your help, we can turn this dumb parody book into a really good-looking dumb parody book!
