Art "Heart of the Bonfire" Stained Glass Artwork

This is the artwork I made for the art contest. I teased it on my profile but I want to make an official post for it since it got sent to the shadow realm by the contest.

The artwork is named "Heart of the Bonfire" and is a stained glass artwork, all done on a pane of glass. The art functions as an actual stained glass window, meaning you can hang it up in a window and use it as a suncatcher if you wanted to. The material used for the grout was black fabric paint, and the colored glass effect was made using a combination of clear glue and acrylic paint. The background was done entirely with acrylic paint to block out any transparency.

Feel free to comment how you like the artwork, what could be done to improve it in the future, and anything else regarding the art.

Spoiler: For whoever judged the art contest

I understand that art is subjective, but I would like more details regarding what happened that made my artwork inferior to others. I am aware you used a point system to judge the artworks, and I want to know what my art received pointwise, how it stood among the others, and how many total submissions I was up against. I just want to know the truth; I am simply asking a favor.

If you choose to let me know, please feel free to DM me. Thank you.
