So even though I have a terrible track record so far of folks participating in contests, I thought maybe that was because I haven’t created the prize way before hand for people to see and feel driven by the want. So this time I have. This was made so that it could be worn around the neck (hence the reason the top coil is shaped as it is, or set on an altar. This is Apollon as a fiery serpent. It is made with red and white sculpy (which is being coated with a hardener for polymer jewelery), has turquois eyes, and carnelian chips set down its back. He is wrapped around a very nice luminous piece of carnelian. If he was being sold he would be 30 dollars.
Contest rules: only one submission per person, it has to your original work, submission needs to be of the poetic type as Apollon was honored at his birthday with songs and poems.
Please note that this contest is international and open to anyone so please do feel free to share about it!
Deadline is May 11th for submissions.
Submissions should be sent to daphne.kyrene@gmail.com

Getting the word out a bit more, so that as many people as possible may enter this contest 🙂
May I ask how big the prize is?
It is about 3 1/2 to 4 inches long. Rough guesstimate 🙂
That’s about 8 to 10 centimeters 🙂
