Contest is over! Judging begins today I'm sorry if I'll be a bit slow about it, but my mom is still recovering from her stay at the hospital so whenever she feels well enough I'll have her sit down with my sister and pick the winners Also, the computer I'm usually on has a virus so I'm on the other computer which is on it's last leg, lol I've been struggling with it all day so be patient with me

Thank you all so much for entering and making this a wonderful birthmonth, haha Why celebrate one day when you can celebrate the whole month? There are some truly astounding entries and we have so many talented artists here at the Arena! Take a look at the first post and let me know if you do NOT see your entry. I'm pretty sure they're all there, but if I missed any let me know This is gonna be a tough contest to judge!

Sarah from The Labyrinth 

I had originally planned to draw Jareth as well, or at least the owl, but I ran out of time.  I hope this will still count as a valid entry. 

My son wanted to enter your contest, too!  He drew pictures for the Food category and the Girly category.  I don't expect his to be considered since he's not a member here, but he reaaaaally wanted to contribute, so here they are:

Oops, I didn't read this post!  I thought I had time to submit my entry since it is still technically the 30th, but it's okay... I was more excited about drawing a picture for your birthday than winning the contest anyway.  Can't wait to see the results!

Happy Bday!!!

And that is so precious that Noah entered the contest! It just warms my heart Thank him and tell him I LOVE his drawings (isn't there always something special and adorable about children's drawings? ) And let him know I'll be sending him a little something for Christmas

OWC - beautiful entry!! It doesn't have to be Disney, any fairy tale is fine And BTW, I love Thumbelina I've been meaning to watch it again! Yours remind me of the G3 Breezies and I love how earthy and calm everything looks in the picture You guys are making this contest even harder

Thanks for letting us last-minute contestants enter your competition, Shen. My son will be thrilled that you love his pictures -- my personal favourite is "Dancing Daisies."  Oh, and he came up with the titles on his own.  He also drew one for the Fairy Tale category, but between the two of us we decided he needed to work on it just a bit more, lol.  It was Prince Charming proposing to Cinderella.  I'll send it to you once he finishes it.  He's actually quite a fantastic artist, but this was his first time drawing ponies and he struggled a bit.  You should see the Veggie Tales characters he drew earlier today, I mean WOW.

Unicorn_pops, thanks as well for the nice compliment on my son's work, as well as mine.  I have been frazzled these past few days trying to finish my own entry that I neglected to comment on the other recent submissions.  I love your Candy Kisses pony and your baby sea ponies.  You are so very talented at drawing hair, and those floats are fantastic!!

HorsingAround, I love your Ariel and Flounder, and especially how the pearl is glistening in the oyster.

SnowsLove, wow... such gorgeous artwork!!  You did a great job making those ponies look truly in love.

FairyDust, I love your Totsy-eyed Red Riding Hood pony and your girly Bow-Tie.  I know you ran out of time, but they really do look fabulous just as pencil drawings. And Fireball eating the apple is pretty cool, too!

mul-ta, I am in awe over your watercolour and ink picture for the Food category.  I can't imagine how beautiful it looks in person. 

Skelletonimp, your picture makes me LOL!!  Poor hamburger pony...  Also, I love your vision of Baby Ruby as a teenager.  Gorgeous!!

Icecrystalline, I'm absolutely impressed by how many ponies you managed to include in one picture.  Wow.  I meant to draw another one for my entry but the mere thought of drawing TWO ponies completely drained me, lol.  They are all nice, but I really like your Sugar Sweet and Blossom.

Aww, thanks Shenanigans! I would have gotten it in earlier if it weren't for my dino of a PC. You're right on the money with the breezie idea, the pic was originally going to be G3 Sew and So as Thumbelina with the breezie fairy prince, but her colour scheme wasn't working with the rest of the pic so I decided to change it. I was quite inspired by the atmosphere in Don Bluth's movies, and it was fun drawing something calm and storybook-like. I'm glad you like it.

Also, Lochnessmomster, I used to watch The Labyrinth ALL THE TIME as a kid. Looks like I'll be rewatching an old favourite of mine too.
