Here's the blurb from Cloudscape: 
For our upcoming "urban fantasy" anthology, Giants of Main Street,  Cloudscape is looking to include a beastiary of fantastical urban  creatures at the back of the book. This is a terrific opportunity for  existing contributors and for other NEW artists to contribute to the  book. We are looking for finished art, inspired by the examples  attached, but with your own unique twist on the concept. Think of it as a  detailed drawing created in the field as part of a catalogue of newly  discovered creatures inhabiting a city in a fantasy world. Each creature  should fit within 6.25 inches wide by 4.875 inches tall including ample  space for text notes around the creature. It should be sans background  and float on 100% white (If you need advice on how to get that pure  digital white, just ask!). Submissions should be 300dpi greyscale. 
Each creature should be accompanied by two to five point form notes  or sentences about the creature's physical attributes, lifestyle, or  character. Keep these separate from the illustration because the editors  will be reworking your words (and writing up the final copy) to give  the beastiary a feeling of unity. Also include the approximate size of  your creature because we are going to have a size comparison chart, like  you see in dinosaur books or whatever. Don't forget to name your  creature.
As usual, we can only accept submissions from artists who have lived  or currently live in British Columbia, or from existing Cloudscape  members. The deadline for submissions is August 3rd.
