MAP judging criteria evaluates creativity,originality,composition,design,technique,craftsmanship,presentation,difficulty and overall impression using photo submission, in-person, or mail in judging. The score sheet is included on this page. Master Artisan Pathway- "MAP" Judging Criteria and Score Sheet There are certain criteria that should be met with regard to each separate category which may not necessarily apply to all, and these are specified under each section. However, the following general points will be taken into consideration when judging. These have been based on looking at assessments of different artistic/creative disciplines and the MAP applicant should endeavor to acknowledge and build upon these as they progress through the Master Artisan Pathway. THE JUDGES All judges received redacted applications so to eliminate any potential bias. While acknowledging that not everyone will have a working knowledge of all techniques, we are determined that judging will be fair, and as a result, judging will be carried out by artists who are proficient in egg art themselves with experience in various fields within egg art. Where the judges recognize their own lack of expertise, they will call in an additional judge who is deemed to be an expert in that particular field. That judge would also be more capable of giving constructive criticism and encouragement to applicants. We are attempting to provide judges in different countries over time so that the responsibility is shared. Creativity and Originality -Judges are aware of the work of many different egg artists, so copies of the work of others would not be acceptable. (See the declaration required on the application form). Make sure to describe any unique ideas in the description area of the form. Composition and Design -The arrangement of visual elements in an artwork, putting together your skills and knowledge of materials to create a masterpiece. Understand the Principles and Elements of Design (Line, composition, space, movement, balance, emphasis, pattern, unity, color, contrast, rhythm, texture, value, form). Does the design flow through the entire piece? The entry should be capable of being viewed as a whole, not just as an egg with additions. Check that no one element can be seen as being out of place. Do the components used create a well-balanced design by using appropriately sized embellishments? Technique -Probably the most obvious points, however attention should be paid to the execution of any technique used, any application of additional materials, correct alignment of the various components used in the design. The judges will be able to spot poor cutwork, paint finish, glue seepage, areas missing dyes etc., so make sure that the very basic mistakes are not made. Craftmanship and Presentation - Show the judges that some effort has been put into the work, not that you have just used what you have immediately available. Difficulty -Although the egg size is not the absolute determination of the degree of difficulty, we recognize that the use of an ostrich, emu or rhea in certain categories should be given additional points. Additional points will be given except in Mini, Novelty, Mechanical, and Artist Choice. Context/Description -Make sure to fill out the description on the form with as much information as possible. Describe unique ideas, methods used, any specific significance/symbolism of the entry. A thorough description will perhaps help you score higher in the creativity/originality section. CRITERIA SCORING The scoring system is based on a 100-point scale. The judge scores each category on a scale of 1-5. This is called the Raw Score. Each raw category score is than converted, based on the percent weighting, to a weighted score. You can read the Judge's Score Sheet below in order to see how much weighting is given to each category. We attempt to have at least 2-3 judges score the entries. The weighted scores from all judges are added together and divided by the number of judges to get the artists final score which will determine the level (bronze, silver or gold) awarded. POINTS NEEDED FOR AWARDS AND SCORE SHEETS Bronze Level Award requires a score of 70 points. Silver Level Award requires a score of 80 points. Gold level Award requires a score of 90 points.

NOTE: In the early 2000's the Faberge Company manufactured many eggs in the style of the original Faberge Eggs. One style they produced were a series of miniature eggs. These eggs were made of 24K gold-plated sterling silver. Several years ago, I came upon several of these eggs that had been manufactured but had not had the final stamping and packaging completed. These eggs were kept in storage after the company was sold. I cannot guarantee these were manufactured by the Fabergé company, but they are identical to the ones I had collected for years. Leslie L.
