Book Illustration Competition

I know many visitors to this blog are new illustrators and students, and thought you might be interested in this news from the House o Illustration in London:

The Book Illustration Competition, a unique partnership between House of Illustration and The Folio Society, seeks to identify and promote new talent in illustration, and is open to illustrators over the age of 18 from all around the world. The first prize is a prestigious Folio Society commission, worth £5,000, to illustrate a new edition. Five runners up will each receive £500.Three of the six shortlisted entries will be from illustration students.

This year's book is The Folio Collection of Ghost Stories, a brand new anthology of classic spine-chillers and lesser-known gems. To find out more and to enter, click here
