"Submission Fee No. 12"

9/30/2019 UPDATE: This print was ACCEPTED to the 3rd Annual "Patterns, Textures, and Forms" Art competition. The exhibit opens October 1st online at https://www.lightspacetime.art/

Submission Fee No. 12

4 x 7 inches 
Woodcut (reduction) 
Edition of 3
Price: Pay what you want by September 26, 2019 

This print is part of a time-based conceptual art project. Read more about it here.

Another trend with submission fees for artists is to charge a variety of fees for a number of reasons. The opportunity referenced by this print had a rather elaborate set of fees:
$10 for student applicants submitting 1-2 images
$20 for student applicants submitting 2-5 images
$12 for applicants submitting 1-2 images by an early deadline
$22 for applicants submitting 3-5 images by an early deadline
$14 for applicants submitting 1-2 images by the final deadline
$24 for applicants submitting 3-5 images by the final deadline 



Interesting choice to give a discount to students considering that struggling adult artists, especially those working one or more day jobs or who have dependents, aren't more likely to have cash to spare than college students.

The $14 price point is selected because the early submission date has passed and if I do sell this print for at least $14, the submission I send will only include one image. This one.
