Poictesme

So over the weekend I emailed my illustration submission to Poicetesme (VCU's liteary/art student anthology) and I got a reply from them today:

Thank you very much for your interest in Poictesme. These are good illustrations, though not what we typically publish. I can go ahead and forward them to our art director, though I would suggest that you take a look at some of our previous issues (which can be found at poictesme.vcustudentmedia.com ) to see the kind of work we have published in the past.

If you have any questions, please do not hestiate to ask.


I'm hoping the art director likes my (one) illustration that I submitted (known as "Monster Smash" on my Deviantart). I actually have seen the art they've published in the past and I think my illustration would be a nice addition to their collection. I've seen paintings, photographs, drawings, and I don't see why my illustration wouldn't be a nice addition to the mix. They also don't say what kind of art they would prefer you to submit on their website. If they don't want comics or anything that looks like something you haven't done in class then they should probably say so. It's just a tad misleading. However I'm still hopeful and keeping my fingers crossed that I can get in. Here's hoping! 8D

Psssh. I hate it when snobby art people think their art is "
better" than comic art. :P

I checked out the back issues....your stuff's better. XD
