Round 3 enrollment is off to a great start, and we've got some fantastic entrants so far. We like looking at everything and all manner of creations, but this week we want to highlight a few very brash works. Check out the artists below! Indeed, the Showcase is all about YOU, the artist!

The ArtSlant Prize is a Showcase Series designed to exhibit and promote talented artists from around the world. The Showcase Series consists of 6 Rounds.  Artists may enter one image per Round and compete for different stages of winning status. Categories include Drawing, Installation, Mixed Media, Painting, Photography, Sculpture, and Video/Computer Art. There is an entry fee of $2 per Round; Premium Placement fee of $20 is required of Showcase Winners to go on to Juried Selections.

There are 3 ways to win for each participating artist:

1. SHOWCASE WINNER - In each of our 6 rounds, the ArtSlant Curation Team selects about 1/4 of the best artists entered in that round to be awarded Showcase Winner status. Being a Showcase Winner means you can move into the jury selection process for Juried Select Winner status. Showcase winners are given maximum exposure on ArtSlant through our Homepage display, our Artshow display and in our e-Publications.

2. JURIED SELECT WINNER - Our Review Panel of international galleries, curators and artists will go through the Profiles of each Showcase Winning artist. From this review, they will select the top 10 Juried Select artists in each round. These 10 artists will automatically go into our year-end voting for the ArtSlant Prize exhibition and cash awards.

NEW - One Juried Select artist in each round will be granted a $250 cash award.

3. ARTSLANT PRIZE - Three artists will be selected as our final ArtSlant Prize winners from the pool of 60 Juried Select artists that have been assembled during the year. Our ArtSlant Prize winning artists will receive:

1. Exhibition: In a top art city or art fair

2. Cash Prizes: Over $20,000 in cash and cash equivalents

3. Exhibition Stipend: Cover shipping & other exhibition costs

4. Purchase Awards: The chance to be part of the ArtSlant Emerging Collection
