Infected By Art connects Artists to a Global Audience through our On-line Art Competitions, our Compilation Art Book, and On-line Artist's Galleries. These live Internet competitions are driven by public voting, where social media platforms play a key role in voting for the best artwork on display.

Infected By Art is designed to amplify the power of social media platforms to generate massive exposure for its artists. We have incorporated Twitter, Facebook, StumbleUpon, Google+ and Flickr to reach a global audience. Infected By Art is expected to reach over 50,000 creative industry professionals from around the world.

Accepted media are:

• Oil/acrylic
• Pen/ink
• Digital/photoshop
• Other

And within these media you can submit your entries in five categories:

• Fantasy
• Horror
• Illustrated
• Science-Fiction
• Un-Published

Guidelines for un-published art work: any art image published on paper in an overall print run of less than 1000 copies at the time of entry, qualify for the IBA competition. Underground Printing or Self Printing of Images of less than 1000 copies is also eligible. Any art image seen primarily on the internet and adhering to the above guidelines is also eligible.

Images must be in JPEG/JPG, Tiff format, and must be no smaller than 1MB per image. There is no minimum or maximum image size, however, if your image(s) is selected to be a part of our book, we will need a hi-res image to print from.

Our Jury Panel is comprised of four of the Art World's Best Fantasy Artists: Chris Achilleos, Larry Elmore, Rowena Morrill and Enric Torres-Pratt. They will select their favorite images for publication in our book and pick the top artists for cash prizes.

Every Artist always retains 100% copyright control over their images.

Eligibility

Professional and emerging artists from anywhere in the world are invited to participate.
