    May I clarify: do you want to submit the text on a sheet with an illustration as a postcard or to arrange it surrounded by illustrations?

      I would love to have the text of the poem within the art piece in whichever form you think meets your artistic integrity

      All the ladies who inspired him, besides their tragic end, possessed timeless beauty . Beauty, as one of those concepts that can not be explained, can only be felt, Po considered it unachievable and transient. Everything that is elusive and what loses on its perfection, causes us great sadness.Death and tragic fate of a beautiful woman , our dark writer, Edgar Alan Po , has often pointed out.Ok Ive think I said enough

    Hello! Can I submit pencil sketches first before the finished and complete product? It takes me several days to fully render an illustration in ink (my preferred medium), thus your feedback is crucial to me before I go all-out on a piece :)

      Absolutely!

    Greetings,.. any further information on the final "product" you'd like to present to your friend? Or are we free to propose number of illustrations, size, format, and so on?

      You are free to propose a number of illustrations. Personally I like Victorian styled illustrations like those of Margaret Armstrong, but I am not wedded to that idea.

    I like the style of victorian illustration like a Margaret Armstong. However, I am not wed to that. At the end of the day, the winner will epitomize the essence of the poem!
