Always searching for our next Featured Artist

As we get ready to transition to our next Featured Artist, we want you to know that…

Oak Creek Printworks is always searching for our next Featured Artist!

At Oak Creek Printworks we assist artists in promoting and marketing themselves by providing packaging and displays for greeting cards, as well as presentation products for a range of artistic formats. In choosing each Featured Artist, we look for an artist whose images are strong enough to stand alone, while also working in sets, demonstrating their ability to focus on a theme that can then translate to a set of greeting cards.

Featured Artists are chosen quarterly, and their work is presented on the cover and in the center spread of our catalog. The Featured Artist’s work is also displayed in our website banner, and in a blog article, where they have the opportunity to talk about their featured artwork. Of course we link to the artist’s website, to drive traffic there as well. As a bonus, Oak Creek Printworks awards the Featured Artist a $100 credit in products and services (including printing services).

We review digital portfolios on an ongoing basis. To apply, please contact us at

There is no application to fill out. Put “Featured Artist” in the subject line, and let us know that you would like to be considered. With this email please send us the web address where we can review your work. If your work is not online, you can send us jpegs or pdf files to review.

Artists are chosen at the beginning of September, December, March and June. If you are chosen, you will be asked to sign a release allowing us to reproduce your images and written statements in digital and print format. We will also ask you for your artist’s statement, a biography, one or two photos of yourself, and at least 12 images of your work (ideally in 3 sets of 4). All images should be in jpeg format, 300 dpi (at least 10 megabytes each).
