Welcome to the Illie Award Nominations gallery! The Illie Award recognizes the single best traditionally created painting of the year, as chosen by the members of the Illustration Exchange / IlluXCon.com.

These are the FINALISTS for the 2012 Illie Award. One of these five pieces will be the winner of this year's award! In order to vote, please rank EACH piece on a scale of 1-5, with the best piece being "5" and the least piece being "1."

DO NOT GIVE THE SAME SCORE MORE THAN ONCE, AND PLEASE GIVE EACH PIECE A SCORE.

 If you wish, you may change your rankings at any time - however, only your final vote on a given piece will count.

Note that ONLY registered users can vote - anyone can see the gallery and click on the thumbnails, but the voting stars will only be active for logged-in registered users of IlluXCon.com. However, you do NOT need to be a registered attendee for this year's IlluXCon to vote - you only have to be registered on the website.

Voting begins OCTOBER 27th, 2012.

Voting ends at midnight on NOVEMBER 9, 2012.
