Sunday Morning Magazine: Art
Overview
Sunday Morning Magazine operates as an online publication with a rolling submission model for visual art, currently accepting one piece per submission across painting, drawing, collage, photography, and digital media. The magazine is transitioning toward a monthly window on the 23rd of each month, aligning art submissions with its writing cycle. This structure suggests a deliberate editorial rhythm rather than an open-ended call, and artists should anticipate that the submission period may narrow in the future. The publication charges a $1.00 fee per submission, a nominal sum that nonetheless signals a transactional relationship between artist and editor. There is no stated prize or honorarium, and the primary benefit is publication in an online magazine. The request for a work-in-progress shot, when deemed necessary, indicates an editorial policy aimed at verifying authenticity and excluding AI-generated work. This is a curatorial stance as much as a practical measure, and it places the magazine within a broader conversation about authorship and medium integrity. Given the absence of detailed guidelines, artists should treat this as a direct, no-frills submission opportunity. The magazine does not specify a curatorial theme, suggesting an open call for work that stands on its own visual terms. The rolling nature of the deadline means there is no urgency, but also no fixed decision timeline. Artists should prepare for a potentially lengthy review period and ensure their submission is self-contained, as no supplementary materials are requested beyond the single piece and, if asked, a process shot.
