We recently launched our biggest ever competition at Moshi Monsters. Aspiring artists have the chance to draw their own Moshling and potentially see it framed and exhibited at a major new art exhibition in London.
We think it’s is a fantastic chance for young artists to see their work recognised alongside some of the world’s greatest Monster illustrators, and in front of a audience of thousands.
We’re really keen to spread the word on this and would love for teachers to pick up on the competition and get their classes involved. Feel free to tell the world!
This is the blog post from the Daily Growl that goes into a little more detail, and here’s the official release that we put out today:
Good luck all!
GLOBAL COMPETITION FOR MONSTROUS YOUNG ARTISTS!
Moshi Monsters offers young artists the chance to draw their own Monster and have it featured at the upcoming ‘Monsters Inked’ exhibition
LONDON, UK – Mind Candy (developers of the online game for kids, www.moshimonsters.com) today announced the launch of a new global competition inviting young artists to design their very own Moshling, (a collectable pet monster) for the chance to have it brought to life within the Moshi Monsters game.
The lucky winner will also get the opportunity for their creation to feature in the upcoming exhibition “Monsters Inked” @ Idea Generation gallery from April 8th – May 4th. Winners will get to see their creations displayed alongside other great artists including new work by Monsterism Island creator Pete Fowler, and a world-first display of 20 illustrations by Flanimals artist Rob Steen from the much-
loved Ricky Gervais book.
Michael Smith, CEO of Mind Candy commented: “It’s a great competition for children of all ages to get involved in. Monsters Inked is a huge exhibition
featuring world-renowned illustrators, and one lucky winner will have the chance to showcase their monster alongside these artists. Not only that but they’ll get their creation turned into a Moshi Monsters character that millions of children around the whole world can adopt.”
One overall winner, and 24 runners-up, will have their work framed and displayed at the Idea Generation Gallery for the duration of the Monsters Inked exhibition. The competition is open to all players of Moshi Monsters, and to sign-up for free visit www.moshimonsters.com.
