Contest! Edit: Roughly Three Weeks!If we get over 10 entries, I'll throw in more prints!
Okay, since a good deal of you showed interest...I will be holding a contest!
The theme shall be Faerie!
I have had a soft spot for fairies and the realms of folklore and magic since I was a little girl, and I am saddened by their recent replacement by video games and vampires. So let's remember our childhoods (or maybe more current fantasies) and make Faerie-themed art! After all, the entire realm of Faerie is born of imagination. For those of you that aren't familiar with it, here are some definitions:
[1] the enchanted realm of fairies
[2] the group containing all mystical, imaginary creatures of folklore and legends
[3] a small, winged creature that lives among flowers and causes mischief

Rules
1. Any medium (including prose and poetry) is allowed. This contest is meant to be inspiring, not limiting.
2. Multiple entries are okay, but you can only place once.
3. If anyone would like to collaborate, that is okay by me.
4. If you need clarification on an entry idea/subject/medium/etc., please note me.
5. No gorier/more perverse than PG-13, please.
6. Some part of the image needs to be new. I will be checking that the submission/update of the image is after June 7.

Deadline
Let's make this a summer project. Entries will be due July 28. This has been moved back three days so that I can do the judging in time for *vanystisalive to do the features.

Judging
For now, I will be the only judge. If there is a tie, or a large number of entries, I will bring in additional judges.
Judging will be based on the following (in order):
Appropriateness: Does it fit the theme?
Creativity: How different is your entry from the others?
Completeness: Does the image/poem/etc. feel like a final product?
Art/Technique: How much control do you have over your medium?
I want this contest to be more about being creative and executing a response to it than pure artistic or literary ability, so keep this in mind when making an entry! I really want everyone to have an equal chance to win, and I believe we all have powerful imaginations!

It's Maiya. She's actually an older character than all of Less Than Three. She's from TCTNW.

I will probably change mine again soon cause the cropping isn't quite right...
