Hey everyone!
Today’s the day! It’s Peats Birthday, and the deadline for the visual journal contest being held by his daughter Cassandra! Everyone make sure your entry is sent in, because all entries need to be in by 11:59pm tonight, Eastern Standard time!

To finish off a week full of contest entries, Birte added another to the fray, and WOW. It’s an amazing piece that keeps unfolding into more and more wards, words, and illustrations!

This is like a little guide to the most common demons and their wards, inspired by the layout of the Marauders’ Map, with the many folded nooks and huge surface, despite fitting into a pocket.

Birte even provided a video that shows off the mechanics of the journal! Somewhere between origami and paper craft, it’s absolute magic to watch!

I’m really blown away by this! It’s gorgeous and creative. Amazing work, Birte!

Today is the Visual Journal Contest deadline! That means you have until 11:59pm EST to send in your entries.  Do some cool Demon Cycle visual journaling, and you could win an exclusive Subterranean Press, illustrated, limited version of Barren, or other Demon Cycle goodies! You can find the full details here!

Today I feel so lucky to be able to show off another lovely contest entry. This one is made by Hannah, who made Wonda the focus of her entry.

Amazing job, Hannah! I love the mortar and pestle you put in Wondas eye. What a clever way to show her loyalty! The use of those flowers and the feather also look amazing, really adding an original highlight and some depth to the composition. Thanks so much for sending it in!

Hey everyone!
Today I want to remind you all one more time that we have a fanart contest going on, made by Peats own daughter Cassandra, the Demon Cycle Visual Journaling contest! We already have a lot of awesome entries that have been submitted by amazing fans over the past week, and there’s only four days left until the deadline, which is on Febuary 8th!
If you want to enter, you only need to create a demon cycle-related visual journal page and share it with us at contest@www.petervbrett.com.

What’s a Visual Journal page, you ask? It’s a decorative journal entry. You can make it in a journal, a notebook, or on any piece of paper. Some options are:

• Text
• Collage
• Cutouts from things like magazines or bookmarks
• Drawings
• Stamps/Stickers
• Anything else you can think of!

Here are some examples of visual journaling from around the web:

The grand prize is Subterranean Press is publishing their limited edition of Barren  with a gorgeous cover painted by Lauren Cannon, and beautiful illustrations by Dominik Broniek. These leather-bound copies retail for $45, and tend to sell out quick and become collector’s items.

First prize is a mass market edition of Barren, to help finish up the collection on your shelf!

Some runners up will also be getting some warded goodies.

Once more, you can send your entries into contest@www.petervbrett.com. The deadline is February 8th, so make sure to get it in before then!
