ElmonX Patrick Hughes: Picassos
In Picassos (2012) and Pablo (2013), Hughes turns his illusion on the twentieth century’s greatest artist, folding rooms of Picasso masterworks, Guernica glimpsed through an open door, the Weeping Woman, Three Musicians, the Bull’s Head into spaces that shift and breathe as you pass. Together they are a hall of mirrors for the eye, and a two-year-awaited return of Hughes to ElmonX. Thursday 7AM PT 30th July 2026 on ElmonX!

Picassos Artist Proof Physical — Prize Draw
One collector will win a signed physical Artist Proof of Picassos by Patrick Hughes, estimated value £5,000–£10,000. No purchase necessary , enter free by email, or by minting a qualifying collectible; the free route is always available and carries identical odds, and buying never improves your chance of winning. The draw takes place regardless of the number of editions sold. Open to entrants 18+ in eligible territories; some regions excluded. Full Draw Terms apply.
Draw Terms
Promoter. This prize draw is a Promotion operated by Vtail Ltd (“ElmonX”) and is governed by these Specific Promotion Terms together with the ElmonX Promotions & Giveaways Terms and the ElmonX Terms and Conditions, each incorporated by reference. In the event of any conflict, these Specific Promotion Terms prevail, followed by the Promotions & Giveaways Terms, and then the main Terms and Conditions.

Not open to residents of the States of New York or Florida, nor to anyone located in a sanctioned or restricted territory listed in Section 8 of the main Terms, nor to residents of any territory listed in “Excluded Territories” below.

How to enter — no purchase necessary. There are two ways to enter. Both can obtain the same maximum number of entries, and every entry carries the same chance of winning. No purchase is necessary, and purchasing does not give you a better chance per entry — it is simply one way to obtain entries.
- Purchase route: Each qualifying Picassos or Pablo collectible held in your wallet at the snapshot counts as one (1) entry. There is no limit — the more qualifying collectibles you hold, the more entries you have.
- Free entry route (no purchase necessary): Send one email to support@elmonx.com with the promotion name in the subject line, stating that you wish to claim the maximum number of free entries (or a specific number). ElmonX will allocate you free entries up to the highest number of entries held by any single entrant through purchase at the snapshot. The free route is open for the full entry window.
Entry parity. The maximum number of free entries available to each entrant is always equal to the highest number of entries obtained by any entrant through purchase. This means a non-purchaser can always obtain, for free, as many entries as the largest purchaser holds. All entries from both routes go into a single draw pool with equal weight. Purchasing never gives more entries, or a better chance of winning, than are available free of charge.
Examples.
- Hold 1 collectible → 1 entry (or claim 1 free entry → 1 entry).
- Mint 10 Picassos → 10 entries.
- Mint 10 Picassos and 10 Pablo (20 collectibles) → 20 entries.
- If the largest purchaser in the draw holds 40 entries, then any entrant may claim up to 40 entries free, at no cost — the free maximum always matches the biggest purchase.
- Prefer not to buy? Email to claim the maximum, and you receive the same top number of entries as the largest purchaser, for free.
Entry window. The entry window opens Thursday 30th July 2026 at 7:00 AM PT and closes 72 hours later on Sunday 2nd August 2026 at 7:00 AM PT. The free entry route remains open for the full entry window even if the editions sell out earlier. The entry snapshot is taken at the close of the window; purchase-route entries are determined by the qualifying collectibles held in your wallet at the snapshot, and a collectible sold or transferred before the snapshot will not count. Free-route claims are allocated up to the applicable maximum at the same snapshot. ElmonX may verify holdings on-chain.
The draw. One winner is selected at random from all valid entries by a verifiably random method after the entry window closes, and announced publicly. The draw takes place regardless of the number of editions sold. Odds depend on the total number of valid entries.
Notification. The winner will be contacted within 48 hours of the draw via their ElmonX account, email or Discord, and must claim within 5 working days; failure to respond forfeits the prize and a replacement winner will be drawn.
The prize & delivery. The prize is non-transferable with no cash alternative except where required by law; ElmonX may substitute a prize of equal or greater value if it becomes unavailable. The winner must provide a complete, accurate shipping address. Shipping is free worldwide but at the winner’s risk from dispatch (ElmonX may ship from the UK, Netherlands or USA). The winner is solely responsible for any customs duties, import taxes, VAT or other charges; refusing delivery over such charges forfeits the prize. Your statutory rights as a UK consumer are unaffected.
Publicity & data. By entering, you agree ElmonX may use your username or handle to announce the result. Personal data is processed under the ElmonX Privacy Policy and UK GDPR.
Legal status. This is a free prize draw under the laws of England and Wales and is not a lottery, gaming or gambling activity.
Full terms apply. See the ElmonX Terms and Conditions (https://elmonx.com/terms-and-conditions) and the ElmonX Promotions & Giveaways Terms (https://elmonx.com/articles/69bc4f984f9aba9e93f444f6).
Additional Information
The mint numbers will be allocated at random. The token ID will match the collectible mint number.
“Complete the Set” airdrop. Collectors who hold at least one Picassos and one Pablo collectible at the snapshot (Monday 3rd August) will receive one (1) airdrop of Patrick Hughes’ The Golden Gate (2024) per complete set held (e.g. two full sets = two airdrops). This airdrop is a promotional purchase reward only. The Golden Gate collectibles issued under this offer are not qualifying collectibles for the Picassos Artist Proof prize draw, do not count as or toward any draw entry, and confer no chance or advantage in the draw. Standard Picassos and Pablo collectibles continue to count toward draw entries as set out in the Draw Terms. This offer may be varied or withdrawn at any time; other drop terms apply.
