Happy end of year break to those who enjoy it!
As a side project (since I have my end-of-year break from work) I've started a tumblr called Hugo Eligible Art(ists). This is related to the earlier discussion about the scarcity of female artists nominated for the Hugo Awards. Since I'm nominating and voting in the upcoming Hugos I figured the simplest way to decide who I'm going to nominate is to collect All the Art! :D Not just limited to female artists, but any artists eligible. It's a really interesting project for me, because I love SFF art, but usually don't have the faintest idea who is behind the illustrations.
I've been having fun emailing lots of publishers and artists (and the Hugo Committee), but the project is still in its early stages and could always use more publicity if you want to share the link. It should be an _enormous_ collection of art if it gets off the ground, particularly including nominees on the Best Fan Artist category (I'm still trying to work out precisely what's eligible there).

ReplyDeleteIf it's quality art it is great ( like any art I guess) - I love the cover on And All the Stars.
Is it is as tough out there for illustrators as it is for authors?
In some ways I think it's tougher for illustrators than for authors. There is a lot of uncredited image-sharing that goes on.
