I've also decided to change the participation prize a little. If you didn't win the grand prize or a runner-up prize, you can choose from the random modiem or a semi-custom pet token! Just let me know which you would like

And now the results!
For the grand prize, congratulations to Janalee with her wind-and-sun catcher! Stained glass was definitely not something I had thought of and I just love the result, it must look gorgeous hanging in the sun

It's been a while since we've had a good old fashioned art contest.. and we won't be having one today, either! Instead, we're having a good brand new alternative medium art contest
![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif)
What's an alternative medium? Anything that's not 2D traditional art materials (pencils, colored pencils, paint, markers, etc) or digital art! 3D art? Mixed media? Diorama? Cross stitch? Mashed potatoes? Let's see it!
I'll be picking a grand prize winner and two runner ups. In addition, the community will vote for the 'fan favorite' winner
![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif)
- The theme is Fire and Rainbows! You're welcome to interpret that however you'd like, but your entry should include Samanayrs in some way too XD
- You're welcome to use any materials besides traditional 2D art materials (pencils, colored pencils, paint, markers, etc) or digital art.
- You can include these materials if they play a minor role in the piece but aren't the primary media used. For example, you could have a Samanayr colored with markers as part of a mixed media piece but couldn't just draw and color a scene entirely with markers.
- All work must be your own.
- All entries will be displayed once the event has closed!
- The grand prize winner and runners-up will be judged based on creativity, effort, originality, and use of the theme. I may enlist Mr Sushi to help me judge XD
There will also be a prize awarded to the 'fan favorite' entry, chosen by the Samanayrs community! When the event is over, I'll set up the vote to run while I'm working on choosing the grand prize winners
