Symbols
Flag: A Cairnfang Manor Banner Framed by long brilliant peacock feathers is a billowing silk banner emblazoned with a royal blue star and an opalescent flame resting in an open hand. As light catches the material of the flame, it reflects a myriad of colors. The words Intellect, Flame, and Spirit are stitched on three of the sides. Carefully stitched below the star in the most eye-catching thread and in flowing script are the words, "Cairnfang Manor."
Pin: a golden gemstone-set triad Cut into the image of an open hand is a sparkling diamond, its palm inlaid with a fiery ruby and scribed with the word, "Flame." Beside it is a sapphire shard in the shape of a slender banner inlaid with a silver star and the word, "Intellect." The final gem of this triad is a vibrant peacock feather cut from a multi-hued stone set with an emerald eye. Gold foil fills the word, "Spirit" etched along the length of the shaft. Each of the carved gems is secured with thin golden bands to a wide metal pin.

Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit
Submission Information
The Solhaven Grand Art Exhibit is looking for physical pieces of art to display. Paintings, drawings, sculptures, and any other physical artwork are acceptable. (Poetry, writing, performances, etc should be saved for other performance-based contests.) The pieces submitted will be judged upon their subject matter, creativity, and overall presentation, so choose something that is of interest to you and give it your all! While subject matter lies in the hands of the creator, we ask that submissions be suitable for viewing by audiences of mixed ages.
All artwork must be submitted in a manner that follows standard item guidelines: 15/15/15 to describe the piece (i.e. a carved/linden-framed/painting), plus a show description for the artwork being displayed taking up no more than 511 characters, including spaces and punctuation. This will ensure all items follow a standard pattern and make for ease in displaying them.
Any artwork that does not follow these rules will not be displayed.
Submission Example:
a linden-framed/charcoal/portrait Perfectly shaped linden blossoms have been etched into a light-toned frame surrounding a simple group portrait. A small scene of a group of adventures standing by a linden tree has been lovingly rendered in charcoal on smooth paper. The design of the sketch is rather crude and rough by most standards, however certain details of the group are meticulously rendered. It is clear that they are of different races, ages, and come from many walks of life.
All pieces of artwork should be submitted to cairnfangmanor@gmail.com by no later than end of day on Monday, March 29, 2021. When submitting your piece, please make sure the subject reads as Art Exhibit, that you list the name of the artist submitting the piece, the title of the piece, and the full text description of the artwork. Multiple submissions by a single artist are not allowed.
