[Results] Tributes to the Goddesses (All prizes have been given out!)

(Wondering what the heck these results are for? Check out the original contest here!)

Woah, what to heck!?

I know what you're all wondering: "Where are the results for the art contest?"

Due to unforeseen real life circumstances, I couldn't find time to collaborate with the children to figure out which pieces of art were their favorites. Thankfully, they managed to send me some (arguably illegible) notes telling me which pieces they picked through the pathways of space-time, wherever and whenever they are. (They attached which pieces were their favorites, phew! No way I could read that chicken scratch. [sweat])

I would sincerely like to thank you all who participated for making the contest happen. I know you all put a lot of work in and I made you wait a while, so I'm giving a participation prize of [gold]1,000 gold [gold] to each of you! Yay, money!

Anyway, onto the results! [illgetu]

There Will Be Music: Xeox Wants Song!

First up is Xeox, who wrote on some normal...alien paper. It feels kinda fleshy. She really liked this piece:

"Oh, wow! I completely love the harp and the posse Mistress Song is in!" (I think she meant pose? Alien language translation is difficult, in addition to her writing in a manner that suggests she doesn't have hands.) "As a being born without fingernails, I am extremely jealous of Mistress Song's long nails here. Fabulous!"

Congrats, ghostPastry! You've won:

Let Them Eat Cake: Boq Boq Wants Feast!

Eureka, I've found it! *Holds up a crumpled up piece of paper*
Wow, thanks, Boq Boq. [stare]

Anyway, here's the piece Boq Boq picked as his favorite Lady Feast:

"Sweet mama, that's a lot of food! [drool] Lady Feast would be proud to be surrounded by all of those delectable morsels. I can only imagine what'd be like to swim in a sea of food. Do you guys think it'd be fun? What if you accidentally ate someone else? [shock]" (You guys are lucky. It took me literal hours to figure out what this child wrote on this piece of paper he just crumpled up. )

Congrats, Emma! You've won:

Perfect Pastries | Pingu + 2,000 Gold

Now, onto the next result! Luckily, this one was easy to find because it smells like strawberries, which also happens to be what Cessy smells like. [yes]

http://www.menewsha.com/img/37965/95...c0c5aa7782.png

All Around the Fire: Cessy Wants Dance!

...Also, the paper is like a rose gold color. Where does she buy such cute stationery? [drool]

Anyway, here's Cecilia's favorite piece of Dance:

"Miss Nephila's Lady Dance is just so funny! If Lady Dance were around in the present time, I'm sure she'd love the dabbing craze." (Cessy's note was surprisingly easy to read. I guess when you have a scholar as a grandpa, handwriting is an important skill to have.)

Congrats, Neph! You've won:

Space Theater | Merkheti Legend + 2,000 gold

Finally, everyone's favorite mascot! He sent his in a scroll case. [shock]

http://www.menewsha.com/img/37965/95...c0c5aa7782.png

The Center Of The Universe: Yumeh wants...himself? [gonk]

Hoo boy, this some fancy scroll he sent. Where does a cat get the money to buy such nice stationery? Also, his handwriting is...impeccable.

Here's Yumeh's favorite pick for his portrait:

"Hey, this is akin to what happened when we met up with those two aliens, who I'm convinced are just gremlins. They transported Cecilia and I up into their ship and got us into this whole mess! Those..." (He had a lot of choice words to say about the aliens. There's like, 3 paragraphs.) "Anyway, I'm going to hang this picture up in my fancy mansion's foyer once I get back to the present time." (I wish I had a fancy mansion...[cry])

Congrats, fishyFey! You've won:

Alter Ego | Jamming With Yumeh + 2,000 gold

It's not my best work, but hey.

Zeapear's Dance just wowed me from the first time I saw it. Her pose and the coloring on this piece is astounding. I love the look that you gave her on her face, as if she knows that her dances can't be beat. She's elegant, but fiery. Congrats, Zeapear! You're the proud owner of a new car!

I'm just kidding. You won:

Peacock Scythe | Peacock Regalia + 5,000 gold

Most Creative Piece

For the most creative piece, I was looking for participants to create art in different mediums. This piece of art really took some skill to make, and I'm impressed with this person's work.
The most creative piece goes to...

Wonderlands' Yumeh!

Mines a WHOOOOLE album. (Not what you think)

Wonderlands really blew me away here. For those who don't know, one must carve a stamp out of a piece of linoleum, which is much trickier than it sounds. We did this in art class when I was in high school, and I could never carve my pieces out at an even depth, which is a tough skill to learn. Congrats, Wonderlands! You're the proud owner of these items, and a sweet stamp of an Egyptian cat:

Mr. Mayor's Crafting Adventure | Brush up your art skills + 5,000 gold

Staff Pick
For this final category, I approached my fellow staff members on which piece they liked the best out of all the pieces submitted for this art contest. It was a really close choice, but that staff ended up picking this piece as their favorite:
