Tip Jar - Art

Tip Jar Submissions are optional and will be treated exactly the same as standard submissions. Please follow the same guidelines as standard submissions, with the exception of noting the genre for your submission in your submission title and your cover letter.

A Tip Jar Submission will not increase your chances of publication, but you will be helping us to manage the costs of Submittable and to continue to pay contributors. Mud Season Review has an all-volunteer staff and is a production of the Burlington Writers Workshop, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that offers free writing workshops. Thank you for your support and for sharing your work with us! We're excited to see what you've created.

Please submit 1 to 6 digital images of your work (JPG is preferred, minimum 300 dpi). Images must be professionally photographed and cropped to exclude anything that is not considered part of the work.
We accept all media: paintings, drawings, prints, photography, animation, mixed media, collage, and sculpture (in the case of 3-dimensional work, keep in mind that it must read well in 2-dimensional form). We are open to all content/style; realism, surrealism, abstraction, conceptual, etc. We seek both: 1) images that may be paired with writing to enhance the visual word and 2) theme-based portfolios. (Please indicate your preference in your cover letter.)

Please include the artist's last name and the title of the piece in each file name. Also include in your cover letter: 1) the titles, media, and dimensions of each image; 2) a 50-word or less biographic statement; 3) a 50-word or less artistic statement; 4) your consideration preference as noted above; and 5) your email and mailing addresses.
Artists must be 18 years or older. See our general guidelines for more information.
