Pen Women Artists, Submit Your Art to be Featured!

Active, associate and allied art professionals, you are invited to submit your work for publication in the Pen Woman and on the NLAPW website!

As the new art editor, I do not have a backlog of unused images. Even if you have submitted work in the past, please feel free to submit images and articles now.

There is no submission fee, no deadline, and no limit to how often you may submit.

I cannot promise that your work will be published, but all submissions will receive serious consideration. All submissions will also be considered for the cover art for the magazine.

We have the following opportunities for art members:
• Short article (with photo) about an individual piece of work.
• Longer article (with photos) about a body of work, or your personal artistic journey or inspiration.
“In the Studio” article focusing on your process, accompanied by a few photos of work in progress and completed work.
Featured Art on the NLAPW website (with or without a short article)

To submit:

Select your best work and email low-resolution digital images to arteditor@nlapw.org. I will request larger, hi-resolution files if we decide to publish your work, and will provide help with writing articles, if needed.

In your email, please include:

a. Your name
b. Branch (please note: we can only feature the work of current members)
c. Your website URL, if applicable
d. Image title, medium, size
e. A brief statement about yourself, the artwork and why you think it should be featured
f. An article, if you are submitting one

If you have any questions, please email me at arteditor@nlapw.org. I’ll be glad to help.

Best wishes to you,

Lucy Arnold, Golden Gate-Marin Branch
NLAPW Art Editor
