2014-15 NAN Trophy Design Contest
Background:
This contest is conducted every two years. It determines the design of the trophy that will be presented to the Champions and Reserve Champions at the annual North American Nationals (NAN) show for two years. The NAN trophies are highly coveted awards for model horse showers. This contest has a prestigious history. The first trophy "head" was sculpted by the talented Sarah Minkiewicz. This sculpture was presented to the Champions and Reserves at the 1995 and 1996 NANs. Subsequent trophies (1997-2013) were designed by Carlee Balling, Kathi Bogucki, Sharon Fulcher, Sommer Prosser, Cynthia Kuerth, Laura Skillern, Sommer Prosser (again) and Kristina Lucas Francis.
The time has come to choose a new design. By tradition, the new design is selected by the past designer. Thus, Kristina Lucas Francis will judge this year's contest.
Instructions:
Sculptors, remember that your piece must be no larger than 4.5 by 4.5 inches and no smaller than approximately 3 x 3.5 inches. It must fit on the plaque but not be dwarfed by it. Any submissions over the maximum dimensions will be disqualified.
The preferred style is is a relief type design. Your composition should be free of significant undercuts or other features that will make it difficult to cast, clean, and paint. The caster may disqualify a design if he/she feels it will be too difficult to reproduce in large numbers.
Monochromatic (one-color) pieces with the artist's signature on the underside are preferred. Previously submitted pieces are welcome provided the design has not been used or sold for any other purpose. You may submit more than one design.
What the winner will receive:
In addition to the honor of being the NAN trophy sculptor for 2014 and 2015, the winner will also receive two cast copies of their artwork, a check for $250, and will judge the next trophy head contest in 2015. ALL submissions will be photographed and featured on the NAMHSA web site.
***The deadline to submit your artwork is September 21, 2013***
*** Mail all entries to:
Heather Jackson-Lain
809 Central Ave
Athens, Tn 37303
Please enter and make Kristina's decision difficult!
