From the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources - June 26, 2020

Artists who submit artwork for Minnesota Department of Natural Resources’ stamp design contests may soon be able to use more than one medium to create an entry.

The DNR has proposed a rule change that would allow artists to create their designs using one or more mediums, such as oil paints, watercolors, acrylic paints, graphite pencils or charcoal. The rule change also would allow artists to use non-photographic digital media.

Entrants would have to report all mediums used in creation of the design. All entries still would have to be one-of-kind original art created by the entrant.

Information about the proposed rule change is available on the DNR website. Written comments can be submitted through Monday, June 29 to Shannon Fisher, Division of Fish and Wildlife, Minnesota DNR, 500 Lafayette Road, St. Paul, MN 55155.
