Uni Ball have sponsored our mid-month competition! We are looking for any genre of 2D work made with majority markers and pens. Please scroll down to see our prizes.
Entries have now closed. View the shortlist here.
- Entries are accepted from the 23rd October 2017 to the 7th November 2017
- Public voting for the 3 People’s Choice Awards will take place between 9th and 14th November 2017

Works must be completed in majority marker or pen in any brand. The competition takes place entirely online – simply submit an image of your work above!
Please only submit straight on images of your work. Images that contain the art work’s frame, mount, the wall or the floor will be disqualified automatically.
We are based in the UK. Our competition deadlines are based on GMT and BST time zones.

First Prize will receive a huge box set containing 54 Posca Pens in various thicknesses worth £229 RRP (pictured above at the bottom of the pile).

A quick question, not for publication. This page states ‘Works
must be completed in majority marker or pen in any brand.’
Does that mean ‘made mostly with markers or pens’? or is
‘majority marker’ a type of marker? I think there may be a
typo somewhere.
Hello! I hope you don’t mind me publishing this – often when one person comments a question it means quite a few more were thinking it but didn’t ask. We meant mostly markers or pens, so for example you could submit a work that had an acrylic wash as a base/underpainting that was then worked over with markers. As long as the work is 2D and mostly made with markers or pens it’s fine to submit! Hope this helps, let me know if you’d like me to remove this comment thread.
Hi, a friend wants to know if this is open to people outside of
the UK? Doesn’t seem to say who is eligable, based on their
location. Thanks

Hello! I forgot to write a size of my work. It is 13×14.
Should the wring one be deleted by you and I should

update it, please? Best regards, Yulia H.
