Valerie D’Orazio announces the Design-A-Lulu Initiative, “in which we ask artists to dream up their own interpretation of our Lulu mascot.” Here are the details:
Here are the specs & pertinent info:
* Our preferred deadline is by the end of January, but we will happily extend it where needed.
* Colored art is preferred but B&W is fine.
* Art should be scanned at 300 dpi.
* Torso-and-head shots preferred, though if you’re inspired to draw full-body that’s okay.
* Though your initial inspiration can be our original mascot Lulu, unique interpretations are welcome and encouraged.
* Who is “Lulu?” She’s the Everywoman who reads and/or creates comic books.
* A variety of ethnicities, races, and body types for your Lulu are welcome as well.
* A request will be made for original art so we can auction it all off in a Lulu fundraising event.
* Selected art will be used for a variety of Friends of Lulu fundraising/promotional purposes, including website & flyer art, T-shirts, stickers, and buttons.
* We will initially post the art on our blog as it comes in, then later set up a permanent gallery on our site.
