2-Dimensional:

 

Any type of painting, drawing, wood burning, etc. that is created on a flat surface. That surface might be paper, canvas, wood, plastic, glass, or…whatever!

 

3-Dimensional:

 

Any sort of sculpture, carving, stained glass, fused glass, ceramics, mosaic, woodwork, beadwork, metalwork, etc. Basically, this would be a piece that isn’t flat, and doesn’t belong in any of the other categories that follow.

 

Black & White Photography:

Color Photography:

 

These 2 categories are pretty self-explanatory.

 

Fiber Art:

 

Typically, this will be something like a wall hanging, hat, scarf, afghan, sweater, jacket, pillow, etc. These items are to be made entirely of Samoyed hair, or a blend of fibers which includes at least some amount of Samoyed hair. They could be created by knitting, crocheting, weaving, etc. Needle felted pieces made with 100% Sammy hair or a blend are also appropriate for entry into this category.

Fiber Art, Embellished with Samoyed Hair-

 

This could include many different types of fiber-based items, as long as they are adorned/decorated with some amount of Samoyed hair. In other words, an entry in this category should not be made entirely of 100% Samoyed hair or blend, but it should include some in the piece and it should be a fiber item. A few possible ideas would include: a quilt with tassels made of Samoyed hair/blend, a fabric wall hanging with a Samoyed image made of Samoyed hair/blend, a clothing item with some Samoyed hair/blend incorporated into the design, etc. Let your imagination run wild!

 

Fiber Art, Samoyed Motif-

 

This includes items, made with any sort of fiber, which represent a Samoyed-themed design, but do not include Samoyed hair. Examples could be fabric paint applied to any sort of item, quilted pieces, knitted or crocheted items with a Samoyed in the pattern, stuffed pieces, etc. They should portray Samoyeds in some way. (NOTE: Needle felted items made without any amount of Samoyed hair could fit in this category.)
