I'm Anya, and I create art on Procreate and traditional. One of the main items in my life that inspires me and my creative work is nature. Even outside in my neighborhood, I can find inspiration for my art. Something about the fresh air helps me clear my head when I am anxious or too excited that I can’t focus and do my work. The small page curl in the corner and the quotes in the cloud & mountain represents my love of reading. The way that the words dance on the page just fills me with wonder.

My drawing is of Paris Hilton, a fashion icon of the early 2000's and late 90's. She inspires my fashion design art and my own style. I am very interested in early 2000's fashion, and drawing her is inspiring to me.

Hi!My name is Alice and I am 6 years old. One day I laid down in the grass and looked up — the flower was SO BIG, bigger than my whole head! I thought: this is what it feels like to be a tiny bug. So magical! I painted the big flower, a bee (bees are flowers' best friends), hearts because nature fills my heart, and a mushroom (little bug houses). LOTS of colours because nature has lots! The world is SO BIG and SO BEAUTIFUL and I'm just a tiny little girl in it. Everyone should look up sometimes.

I have always wanted to be an artist, and animals and designs like the one in my piece have been a major inspiration for me. When I began drawing this piece, it was not meant to be a “big thing”, but as my mind wandered and my hand took over, I found myself carefully layering colors and brushstrokes that I had not ever known I could create. It transcended simply sitting and thinking of what to create, and I know more awaits me in a future where I am inspired to create more extraordinary pieces.

I really like Spider-Man and skyscrapers. I used watercolor and pencil to make my picture. My picture makes me feel very happy.

My names Tallulah. I am a 13 year old artist. This art is a year or two old, but it definitely is my favorite piece of mine. Photorealism and hyperrealism have always been my favorite art styles.

The desert is full of texture and I had fun using lots of mediums and textures in my piece!

I was inspired by a picture of a bird that my instructor used in my High School Art class and my desire to increase my skill at drawing realistic subjects. I decided to use pointillism to illustrate it because I really enjoy that technique.

I love the ocean which is what inspires most of my art. Also the same with my family which is why I add them together. I feel like nature, family, music, & friends are what makes me happy - my art is my happy life. I named my piece "Family Evolution" because humans evolved from water! In the art there is a mountain; I was named after a mountain; McKinley. Finally, I included my Ipad because that is how I connect with my world and my art and it has my favorite vinyl album - it mean a lot to me!

I'm a digital and traditional artist; digital for four years and traditional for eight.

It makes me feel at peace and at home.

this is an original character, Greer, a selkie who abandoned the sea in favor of adventure on land.

Hello, I like doing art with no thought behind it. The piece was based on a pretty reference I found(I liked the hair) and I just wanted to draw it via scribbles. I have no idea how she turned into paper. It was not the intent, as there was no intent. I also don't know where the polynomials came from. They just appeared. I was having fun hatching and that's all there is to it :D

My name is Wolf and for the last few months I’ve been learning how to draw more realism art. When I was able to capture the style that I enjoyed, I transferred it digitally. This piece represents my growth as an artist. A long time ago, if you asked me to draw something realistic, I would have said no. Now I challenge myself and embrace new styles.

Hi! My name is Lindsay and I am turning 14 near the end of April. My piece was inspired by myself and my progression over the years. I wanted to capture how I have changed over the last couple of years. Since I normally do not do self portraits, this was a challenge for me. I have always struggled with portraying myself, or anything related to me, so I am incredibly proud. This was a step out of my comfort zone, and I’m proud of what I have created. Thank you!

I love drawing and reading. I took a picture of my kitten and made a pixel art version of it. The picture makes me feel hopeful.

My piece, Moonlight From Within, is inspired by Columbina from Genshin Impact. I like how she seems calm and peaceful, but also powerful in a quiet way. The broken moon pieces she’s holding represent that the light is part of her. Even if something feels shattered or incomplete, it can still glow and be beautiful. I wanted it to feel like her strength comes from inside. This piece makes me feel calm and thoughtful. It reminds me that even in darker moments, there is still light within you.

My dad brought my mother some beautiful flowers and it inspired me to paint them. Luckily we painted tulips on our next outschool lesson. What a coincidence!

I created a self-portrait that shows me brandishing my drawing pen! I wanted to show that my inspiration comes from the act of creating. When I started sketching, the idea came to me really quickly, and that felt like part of the inspiration, too.

I grew up in a city and I loved the wonder of these sky-reaching monuments with many people all doing their own thing. I also liked seeing how ecosystems function like jungles and oceans. So I based this piece off of the idea of conserving and having industrialization and cities being in harmony and intertwined with the natural world. It makes me feel hopeful for what humanity can do if we'd allow ourselves to function with nature and actually make an effort to conserve the beauty of ecosystems.

This painting is inspired by SZA’s SOS album cover, where she’s sitting alone at the edge of a diving board surrounded by the ocean. That image was based on a famous photo of Princess Diana sitting the same way on a yacht in 1997. I wanted to capture a similar feeling of isolation and not belonging, even as the world watches. The blue tones represent calm on the outside but sadness underneath.

Hello, I'm Grace! This piece is inspired by (and is of) Splatoon, a game by Nintendo.

I was inspired to draw this because wolves are strong and protective. They take care of their families and keep each other safe. In my picture, the wolf lives in the mountains like a guardian watching over its home. This makes me feel happy because the wolf is peaceful and free and doing what it loves in nature.

My name is Hannah. I love to draw, but I don’t usually draw birds. The thing that inspired my piece was that I loved spring, so I thought putting a phoenix in a spring background would look beautiful, and whenever I look at it, I feel calm.

Art is a very calming thing for me. Whenever I am feeling stressed or anxious, I sit down and do some sketching. Recently, whenever I'm sitting on my own, I start thinking about the lighting in the room and how the light from the window reaches everything and makes all of it feel so beautiful. I find myself really wanting to make a painting of it.

I love to read, write, and draw. The Wings of Fire series has inspired me a lot in my writing and my art. I've read the books and drawn the characters countless times.

In this story the meteor shower causes fire and Robo Dino was the only dinosaur to survive. He lost parts of his body but found a robot body that he used to save himself. Now he is happy to start a new life in the city. This drawing makes me feel happy that the dinosaur survived and escaped the fire.

I enjoy painting because it allows my creativity and imagination to come alive on canvas. This drawing captures a white-tailed deer who is wandering in woods without any fear and hesitation. I get inspiration from the natural beauty surrounding us including plants, animals and surreal nature. This reminds us that boundaries and rules are for humans, we should be free to wander, explore and choose our path to success.

This piece reminds me of my first art class on Outschool. I could never get into art, I tried but was always frustrated and unsatisfied with the outcome. I found a digital art class on Outschool and was immediately impressed with the teacher. He made digital art not only engaging but achievable to someone like me. In my first class he showed me his planet art, much like this one. It was amazing, and I was doubtful I could achieve this level. So this piece is special to me and how far I've come.

I am an artist of both the martial and drawing kind. I especially love to draw animals, because they are both cute and fierce, like me! My inspiration flows like water.

I like to look at old houses and think about the people who have lived in them. It makes me sad to see old houses be demolished. It seems not many people care. I wish I could save all the old houses; thats why drew this old house in the yard it was meant to be in.
