Shimmeris a quarterly digest speculative fiction magazine. Were looking for art that complements the stories we publish: speculative, original and compelling. For each issue, were looking for two color pieces (front and back covers), and a few black and white or grayscale pieces for the interior. We want art that tells a story and that pushes the boundaries of illustration in the same way speculative fiction pushes boundaries.
Because we are a small press magazine, I can only afford to commision original color artwork once a year. I am looking for artists who are willing to let me reprint existing illustrations as our cover for a small fee. Payment for reprint rights is$30.00. All contributors receive a copy of the issue in which your illustration appears.
If you are willing to let me look through your portfolio, please contact me at mary@shimmerzine.com.
Thank you for your time and attention.
