Advanced Photoshop competition!

Imagine Publishing’s Advanced Photoshop magazine has set up an exclusive competition with iStockphoto.com to offer digital artists the chance to create a cover image and win prizes worth £4,000.

Using stock photography supplied by iStockphoto.com (www.istockphoto.com/createacover), artists must use Photoshop to create a stunning piece of art that is good enough to grace the cover of Advanced Photoshop. The best artworks chosen by the judging panel will become part of a fourcover split run for issue 65 of the magazine.
As well as the opportunity to see their image on the cover of the digital art magazine, the four winning artists will also each receive £500 cash and £500 of iStockphoto.com
credits.
“We’re really excited to be working with iStockphoto.com on this fantastic competition,” said Editor, Julie Easton. “Digital art is incredibly varied and there are plenty of established and up-and-coming artists producing wonderful imagery with Photoshop and stock photography. This competition gives all digital artists the chance to compete for a cover spot, as well as win some really great prizes.”
“In an era where technology is creating new forms of creativity, digitally generated artwork is reaching all-time heights. We’re sure to see some inspired designs in what promises to be a great competition, bringing together a creative mash-up of Photoshop wizardry with iStock’s file collection of over 5 million,” said Kelly Thompson, CEO of iStockphoto.com.
