Shutterstock is inviting creatives from around the world to enter Shutterstock Sketch, a sketch contest, where the grand prize winner will receive a trip to Cannes for the International Festival of Creativity in 2016.

To enter the contest, creatives are asked to sketch what they love online or at Pixels of Fury at Cannes -- and other upcoming non-Cannes events -- then share the sketch on Instagram or Twitter using #ShutterstockSketch as well as following @Shutterstock.

Entries will be based on two criteria: creativity and artistic quality. A panel of designers, including Jessica Walsh, John Maeda and Jessica Helfand, will pick the winner. 

Contestants can submit sketches now through 11:59 PM ET on October 30, 2015, with the winner to be announced in November. 

The grand prize consists of two round-trip economy air tickets to Nice, France, one week hotel accommodations, and two seven-day Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity passes.
