Art Submission to BarBar

This has been brewing behind the scenes at BarBar for quite some time.  We are expanding our reach from poetry and prose to now include art as well.  And we would love to welcome you into our BarBar family.  

What We Are Looking For - Everything!  From your sketches to your masterworks.  All styles and mediums are welcomed.  Give us your best painting of a fruit basket, your newest digital art creation, your most surrealistic hallucinatory self-portrait.  We want it all - conceptual, classical, contemporary, collage, color field painting - all of it!

We are currently accepting individual pieces and collections.  You are welcome to submit a single piece, or multiple pieces to be considered individually.  If you would like to submit multiple pieces to be considered as a singular collection, please indicate that in your submission.    

Submission Guidelines:

Simultaneous submissions are fine but please let us know as soon as possible if it is accepted elsewhere.

Artists are free to submit multiple times.  In fact, we encourage it.  We would love to help you build a fanbase!

We accept previously published work as long as you hold the rights to the work.  By signing our publishing agreement you are ensuring that you are legally allowed to give us the rights to publish your work.  

Format Instructions:

We accept the follow file types: pdf, jpg, jpeg, png.  If you are submitting multiple pieces to be considered, please upload each artwork as an individual file.  Thank you.  

After Submission Guide:

All pieces accepted will be published on our free to access website www.bebarbar.com.  Some will be selected for inclusion in our Virtual Gallery - a unique digital experience provided to our Patreon subscribers.  

Unfortunately, we are unable to provide monetary compensation at the time.  We encourage submitters to view us as a promotional service, like the best friend your work has ever had.  We will promote your work, connect you with a large viewership base, and link your work to any social media accounts you would like to provide as well as any personal pages where our readers can come and purchase your work.  

Expect a response turnaround time of a month. Sometimes we are faster. 

In the event we do not accept your submission, please do not be discouraged. Keep working, submit again, submit elsewhere, or opt in for our personalized feedback.
