Artists! We're just finishing up my new Christmas album Christmas in Cali and I'd like to do something different for the album art. Since I have no real specific vision for the art, I wanted to "bring it to the people" and let y'all create something fresh. So we're doing a contest to see who can draw up the sickest album art for this Christmas album. And as a thank you to the winner for being a part of the project, we'll give you $500 cash (and signed CDs of course). And for all the "non-winners" maybe there's an opportunity to work together down the road. Who knows?
So, if you're an artist (ie. painter, tattoo, digital, graffiti, etc.) then this is for you.
Can't wait to see what y'all come up with!!! Have fun.
Here's the "rules" and guidelines for the contest.
THEME: "Christmas in Cali." Laid back. Feel good West Coast vibe. Positive vibes.
GOAL: Draw the sickest piece of art for the album cover for my new album "Christmas in Cali".
REWARD:
$500 cash (plus credits on album and a signed cd of course!)
DEADLINE for submissions: Nov 12, 2012.
SUBMIT TO: Submit art to: info@dominicballi.com (Note: a small jpg or photo of the art will be fine for your submission. If we end up going with your piece we'll get a high res version from you afterward.)
GUIDELINES FOR THE ARTWORK:
-No surfers
-No chicks in bikinis
-No dudes in speedos ;-)
- I'm thinking hand drawn is the direction I want, but a dope digital piece could be cool too.
-Must incorporate at least a little red and green so it feels Christmasy
- Must have text "Dominic Balli and "Christmas in Cali" on the art.
- "Dominic Balli" should grab your attention over "Christmas in Cali"
"Dominic Balli" should be (or appear to be) hand drawn, BUT must also be similar to, and reminiscent of, the original Dominic Balli logo (NOTE: there are two Dominic Balli logos. Both are the same look but one has the "Dominic" stacked on the "Balli". The other has them side by side. Logos can be seen here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/american-dream/id451803116
