<\/p> $\"\"$ <\/a>This past weekend, I found out that I\u2019m in consideration for this year\u2019s British Fantasy Award in the Artist category. The British Fantasy Society<\/a>\u2018s \u201cLong List\u201d, or Recommendation List, is floating around on various sites, so I guess it\u2019s officially public now. I saw it today over at Shocklines<\/a>. Apparently, the BF Award in this category is given to an individual, but it has to be for a specific picture or work by that individual. I found out that the specific work responsible for my inclusion on the list, is my art book, COVER STORY: THE ART OF JOHN PICACIO<\/a>. So that\u2019s great news. My understanding is that British Fantasy Society members now go vote, and that narrows the list down to a short list of finalists, which would constitute the official nominations, and then a winner comes from that list. So to any and all folks who put me on this list \u2014 thank you. Much appreciated. Nice to be in the company of the following in the Artist category this year:\n

Ben Baldwin \/ Vincent Chong \/ Les Edwards \/ Velic Fahrija \/ Dean Harkness \/ Dominic Harman \/ Matthew Laznika \/ Zach McCain \/ Edward Miller \/ Jackie Morris \/ Harry O. Morris \/ Ted Naifeh \/ Larry Rostant<\/p>\n

(By the way, if you\u2019re not quite sure what a British Fantasy Award looks like, wonder no more. Apparently, this is what one looks like circa 2003, courtesy of the Agony Column<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
