So you think you are an artist, now is your chance to prove it.
Here's your chance to create the Florida Marlins Community Foundation greetingcards using your own work of art. Scan your imagination and create a masterpiece. The theme is the Florida Marlins and the holidays. You can use Marlins' logos and other graphics. Create photo collages, paintings or drawings.

Three honorable mentions will each receive four infield box seats to a pre-selected 2009 Marlins home game, pre-game on-field recognition and an autographed player card. Eligible artwork needs to include: Artist's name and contact information, school, grade and teacher's name. To: Florida Marlins, c/o Marlins Masterpieces, 2267 Dan Marino Blvd., Miami, Fla. 33056. Entries must be received by Monday, Nov. 17. Call 305-626-7370. The interesting thing to me is that you can use Marlins' logos and other graphics. If I were to use them on FishStripes, I would get my butt kicked up I-95 to the Georgia state line and then back down I-75 to South Florida. But then again I don't do FishStripes for any worthy cause I am aware of. However, the site is non-profit in the sense, I don't get paid. But enough about FishStripes. The Florida Marlins Community Foundation does good work and if have an artistic bent or know someone who does. This is the time to be discovered.
