Showcase your kid’s artistic talents!

My name is Remy and I love drawing and animals! This art piece was made because we were studying the Amazon and I picked an animal to draw. This inspired a series of time-lapse sketches. It makes me feel proud.

Hi, I'm Artemis, and I enjoy making art! I'm a bit of what some people would call a "weird kid", and I'm actually proud of that, because I'm "weird" because I make dragon puppets! I also animate and make short comics. The inspiration for this piece was the crunching that the leaves made when I walked, and the beauty of nature. I'm really proud of this piece, because it's the first time I've used this artstyle with still life. It's like the art is telling me to go on a walk in the forest!

Hi, my name is Charlotte! This is my drawing featuring my OCs named Cameron (bottom) and Hyun (top). They went through a lot together, but Cameron couldn't save Hyun from the things and people hurting him. Cameron now has to live with the possibility that one day he will slowly forget Hyun's face, then his voice, and then him altogether.

I came up with this piece on my own. I saw him in my head and I knew how I wanted Kai to look. I created him for an online role playing class. I drew him with one of his antlers broken because when I first introduced Kai he had run into a wall out of confusion. I call this piece “Liquid Prayers” because words cannot always relay how you feel, and sometimes you just got to let the tears fall and let people see that you feel. When I look at kai in this piece I feel like giving him a big hug.

This piece invites the viewer to imagine the beauty of coming home after a long day at sea. The warm colours of the sunset and the reflection on the water show the feeling of a job well done. I found it challenging to create the small details, especially the people and the boat. I loved painting this. I hope that when people look at this artwork, they feel at peace and that they are loved.

Art is my life

The picture is called Spring. It makes me feel calm and happy. I like how the sky looks soft and colorful at the end of the day. I am a child. I love drawing, especially with paints. I like playing with my cat and my friends.

Hello! My name is Gabby, and this piece is inspired off my two favorite cookies, Pure Vanilla Cookie and Shadow Milk Cookie, in the popular game: Cookie Run Kingdom! I love the dynamic between these two characters, and the lore between them gives me goosebumps every time! Even if you are unfamiliar with the game, I do hope you at least enjoy the fanart! (Fun Fact!: This piece was drawn traditionally, and colored digitally!)

I enjoy making art because it gives me a creative outlet, and I love designing characters. I like how I was able to use realism, and I enjoyed how it turned out.

I am inspired by cats because they're so cute, fluffy, playful and cuddly. I decided to see what would happen if I turned myself into half a cat and half normal. I have fostered kittens for my entire life and it has taught me to care for animals that need my help. I am now responsible and caring because of taking care of cats. I want to be more like cats and be loving to everyone. My picture shows me being more like cats.

I enjoy exploring the outdoors, climbing trees, writing stories and drawing mystical pictures. I got my inspiration from a chapter in one of my stories I have written. Where the mother dragon leaves her babies in the protection of the tree of life. When she needs to go defend her territory. When I look at my picture I am proud of myself for bring my imagination to life and being able to hold it in my hands.

Hi! My name is Mackenzie and I just turned 10 years old. I am inspired by my older sisters and of how amazing artist they are. I hope to keep on growing with my artwork and keep on learning. I am very proud of my face. It was really really fun to draw and I am exited to see draw and maybe paint more things like it. I love doing realistic art and compering it to my other pictures and seeing how it changed. Thank you so much for reading this! Bye!

I love drawing even if i'm not great at it. This ballerina is imagining herself on stage dancing for an audience and she's expressing herself with dance. I was in a art class when my teacher said dancers are what we will be drawing and i chose her because of my very own love for dance.

Howdy, I'm Savannah, and I made it! Whoo hoo! Anyways, why this inspired me was because I adore books, dragons, and playing the keyboard. Each one inspires me greatly, so why not put all of them together? This is Daydream Mirage, and maybe one day it won't be so much of a mirage.

I'm Malachi. I like a variety of random stuff. One of those things is squids, and this is a Giant Squid. It lives very, very deep under water. It inspires me because it is massive, and it is cool because it is quite elusive.

I love to draw and I love animals. Whenever I have free time, I love to be creative. I’m learning so much in my art classes on Outschool and challenging myself with new skills as much as possible.

My name is Alex.

My name is Lani. I did this piece for Chinese homework, and this artwork made me feel calm.

Each bubble shows a different part of who I am. The flute shows my focused, connected side - the part of me that loves being in harmony with others. The drums show my wild, energetic side - the part of me that loves the thrill of a big performance. And the guitar shows my private, peaceful side - the part of me that just enjoys being in my own world.

I learned how to draw this white charcoal piece, from my art teacher, Miss Lisa. When I was done, I didn't even recognize it was mine! I like cats. I also like to sing, read, draw, and write. I hope you like my piece! Signed, Alena.

My name is Isla and i have been drawing for three years. This piece of art was inspired by my trip to Galapagos where I saw lots and lots of sea lions. I even swam with them in the ocean!!!. I am really happy how it turned out. The thing I like most about the drawing is the eyes!!!!!

I get a lot of inspiration from books and nature, so I featured a girl reading in a beautiful landscape. Create, dream, believe has really helped me go above and beyond in things I love. It really makes me feel proud because I know I worked hard to create it, and that I can create something I love like this. If I ever find myself about to give up, all I'll have to say is create, dream, believe.

My main inspirations for art are imagination and fantasy. I love making mystical creatures and they incline me to do what I love: drawing. While I love drawing fantasy animals, I also enjoy drawing still lives and realistic portraits. I added hints of both reality and fantasy through everyday items and magical items, like the socks or the floating musical notes.

My name is Tristen. I love drawing animals and vehicles. In this drawing I used a lot of green, my favorite color, to make a father and son chameleon.

I love foxes and their way of whimsy. I like watercolors the best for a media of art! I thought that a fox in its natural habitat and sleeping would be an adorable and creative piece to enter! Foxes are the best.

My name is Cedar and I love to play, draw, paint, laugh, sing, dance and be helpful. I had so much fun painting and decorating this life size drawing of myself as a super she-ro! I like princesses and being able to help people, so I drew myself as a Princess She-ro. It made me feel strong and free!

I try to be an aspiring artist, but I don't have too much time for it. I pumped this out in less than 5 minutes with all my effort, and I think it inspired me to continue making art.

I love MUSHROOMS and I wanted to make something big so I thought I’d make a cute big Mushroom! It makes me feel really good and really proud

This piece shows my peaceful moment of resting in nature with animals. I was inspired by how calm it can feel to lie in the grass and spend time around animals. It makes me feel relaxed and reminds us to appreciate quiet moments and the outdoors. I made it with gauche and colored pencils, more of a mixed media piece.

Hello, my name is Heidi. I made this piece because nature inspires me–it’s one of my biggest inspirations! The girl in the dress is me, being inspired by the beautiful world around us! By my house, poppies bloom on the hills around this time, and it’s beautiful. You can see mountains in the distance that are just a perfect backdrop, especially when there are clouds. I think nothing is more inspiring than nature, and that's why I made this piece showcasing that.

I’m a digital artist, and I love to draw. The ability to create anything I imagine is what draws me to art, no matter how silly or weird it may be. I always look back at what I’ve created, feeling accomplished, motivated to continue with more. This artwork was inspired by my own feelings when I create, and how it allows me to make new, incredible worlds and characters with only the press of a pencil.

I really like bature and wanted to paint something that was nature themed so I decided on a forest with a sunset cause forests are very pretty in the sunset

I like to draw colorful and unique people. I don't really think too hard. I just draw whatever I think looks cool. It makes me feel happy to draw all kinds of things.

I am in third grade and I am writing a comic book called Woodland Walkers: Beginning of the Walkers. My drawing has the characters of my book. I love nature and the color purple. I love animals, especially foxes and wolves. My drawing makes me feel excited and calm and it makes me want to call a pack of wolves!

Hello! This is a Halloween based drawing of siblings dressed as skeletons in pixel art! Normally I like drawing eyes, ears, arms/hands, etc, but this time, I made two people's full bodies! I also like doing pixel art digitally.

Hi, I'm Kefira! This piece was inspired by my beloved bunny, Miss Baby Bunson (but we just call her Bunson). She passed away recently and I wanted to take this wonderful chance to honor her (rest in peace, Bun-Bun). She was a very sweet, lovable bunny and I feel that this artwork really captures her adorably curious self. I will cherish this piece forever and hang it in my room as soon as I get a frame!

I live in the Portugal and we see many bunnies gathering to watch the sun set.

Godzilla can do anything.

I originally planned to make an AWESOME obby animation, but sadly, it was too much, and either way, the animation I showed to you guys is better. I'm kinda shy, I like to animate simple things, and I was inspired by the animation by what I wished I could do IRL. The animation makes me feel a little disappointed; it isn't what I thought I would make, and it kinda sucks. But it still works. Also, the name "Down but not done" comes from one scene from the animation. I hope I get a good score! bye!

My name is Owen and I am inspired my Pokemon. I love the challenge of battles and that there’s always more than one way to win. I’m inspired by their stories and that they don’t give up.

I am the second of five kids and my family is my favorite place to find inspiration. I love to make my younger brother laugh with the cartoons I draw and my older brother and I love to design and build things with Lego. This drawing is of my grandfather. He died a couple of years ago and it left a big hole in my heart, drawing him helps me to feel connected to him and to the heritage of values he passed on to our entire family; being honest and courageous in everything we do.

I go to the Outschool class "The Original Pokemon Drawing Club" every Monday night. In my class, Teacher Billy gave me the instructions to make Scorbunny. He is my favorite Pokemon, and my artwork makes me feel great!

I love all the colors of the rainbow and take every opportunity to use lots of them. Originally, I wanted to create a different picture using acrylic on canvas, but it did not turn out the way I dreamed of. After a bit of trial and error, patience, and determination, I created A Fish Out of Water with liquid paint, straws and brushes. Creating this picture taught me not to give up on an idea and not to be afraid of adjusting my plans. This painting makes me feel happy and proud.

I love Wings of Fire and wanted to create an original character based on the books to use in my own story. Magnolia is a dragon who got her leg cut off in the war and has to juggle both school and running her kingdom. She also has a pet lemur, named Sage, and sisters she has to care for since her parents died. Magnolia is strong and fierce and perseveres through hard challenges and also asks for help when she needs it and I want to be like her (minus the losing limbs and parents bit :) ).

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 get really sleepy in math class. To keep myself awake, I often doodle. I started to draw snakes because it just felt natural. After school, I look up some snake pictures - and then, I start drawing. Drawing these snakes is a lot harder than it looks! And then - BOOM! - I drew this snake.

I painted this tree because I love to climb tress. Trees are a good place to think and be inspired. I put in cats because they are my favorite animal. This painting makes me feel happy.

I am a young naturalist living on a ranch in New Mexico. This piece is inspired by the snowy winters here. It makes me feel happy, and like I'm going to have a snow day. Also I look forward to being cozy by the fireplace at home on a day like this.

I seriously don’t know why I made this, I was lying in bed and I had a sudden thought about drawing a snake, then I just built on that. Everything below the collarbone on the skeleton is based of a Google image, the rest is from my imagination, hence why the snakes look like gummy worms 🐛. Uhhhh I don’t know what to put…I spent around maybe 6-8 hours on it, during class periods, and I was really scared to color the snakes because it was my first time using shading and blending with color. Tysm!

I was inspired by all of the media coverage on dyes and chemicals in our food. It’s a serious topic but I decided to present a message about how I don’t like all of the added unnecessary chemicals by use of satire.

My name is Emma! This piece is of my OC Saito. He loves to read and is the nerd of the group. I decided to draw him because I relate to him and I love to read:)

My name is Macie and what inspired me was that I love exploring the outdoors. I love the comfort being outside brings and I decided to draw me looking into Creation and what God has made

I have an art technique that I like to call fade art. I used fade art on this. Outschool inspired me to create this. The face represents how I feel after taking a class on Outschool. 😎

I have a lot of inspirations for this piece, but the main ones are otters and axolotls, who I based the two alien creatures on. The red sky with two suns is a nod to some real-life solar systems that have two stars in them.

The beautiful conifer landscape of North Alaska where the Aurora Borealis is shimmering high... that's where my dreams are and one day I will fly.

While working on painting an ocean wave, I was inspired by the curl at the tip of the wave. It reminded me of a dragons snout, so I continued painting it until my wave became a complete dragon. Looking at this dragon makes me happy because of how much I love reading about dragons and fantasy.

Hi! I am Shashvini! As you can see I made a chick in some grass with flowers. What made me create this art is that I like chicks and I thought it would be a good choice for this art contest. This is what inspired me. Whenever I think of this art I always think of peaceful things, I think this art is a very calm art. A chick in grass on a peaceful sunny day. This is a little bit about my little chick in the grass. I hope you enjoy it! Thank you!

I'm inspired by game art

I was inspired by a mountain goat. It makes me feel happy

I named my drawing, "My Wise Friend," because owls remind me of wisdom and quiet strength. As the oldest child in my family, I help take care of my younger siblings and try to be a good example of responsibility, like the owl. My faith in the Lord inspires me the most, because He helps guide me to be loving, strong, and wise like the owl. This art makes me feel calm and thoughtful, and it reminds me that even quiet people can be strong leaders who help others.

I wanted to test my skills and see if i could draw one of my favorite characters. I was very happy to see how it turned out.

My name is Sarabel and I love all things creative, especially drawing. I spent a approximately 20 hours working on this drawing and am very proud of my work.

Something that inspires me is the idea that robots can help people and improve communities in the future. I enjoy robotics and engineering because they, along with creativity, can be used to solve problems and make life easier. My LEGO creation, “S.E.R.V.” (Scorpion Emergency Response Vehicle), was inspired by the idea of a robot that could help during emergencies and dangerous situations. I designed it to show strength, multifunctionality, and the ability to protect and even rescue people.

Hello, my name is Aiden. My inspiration is about positivity overcoming negativity. My story lead to tough times in my life, and leading to negativity consuming me. I was drowning in it. I needed help, and I did get help. I was able to be free from the chains that held me tight. It may leave you with a scar, but what shapes you into what you are now, and I have some. I thank God for being there for me, and everyone else. Hear my message: positivity will defeat negativity, let it shine in you.

My name is Jaya and my passion is to draw cats. Fire is the name of a comic book I’m making. When I draw cats, it makes me feel good and it’s really easy to draw my cat. It’s really cool with the eyes I make, and I love making my cats. It makes me feel good.

This piece shows what it's like to be me. My brain is wired differently than many people’s, so I notice things and understand the world in my own way. Like me, the figure is vulnerable, but also calm and focused. The shapes above me are the things that help me orientate and stay attached to the world, like time, patterns, and space. Showing the world what it's like to be me makes me feel strong.

Hi, My name is Aubrey. I love drawing and my favorite color is red. What inspires me is all the fascinating stuff nature can do and how it makes me feel. I live where there are 4 seasons and I love that I can experience them all.

Hi my name is Luka, I modeled, textured, and rendered this 3d scene in blender and partially textured in adobe substance painter. I made it like for my portfolio idk. Vote for me cuz why not.

my great grandmother was a watercolor artist and she inspired my love for art. I started painting once she passed away.

When I was young, my mom was cutting a bell pepper and was greeted by a moaning face. I found the photo she took of it when I was searching for a reference. Bell peppers don't eat meat, but this one does.

My name is Alia and I wanted to share this pice of artwork because I feel so proud I was able to make it. I am honestly not that focused on wining, but more on showing people what I am most talented at, but I DEFINITELY don’t mind winning! By the way, a Deadly Nater is a dragon that can shoot spikes from its tail and can produce a fire blast from its throat to attack if needed.

Stories are my main inspiration, I often find them leading to many of the drawings I create, either through abstract ideas presented by the story or by characters I like. In this piece I tried my best to combine these things, the laptop and the phone represent stories told through the digital world like video games, anime, and webcomics. While the books and manga show the stories that come in a physical form. Lastly the fan and meneki neko represent the influence Japanese media has on my art.

My name is Tallia. I love creating things. I was inspired by how the Proboscis monkeys look, especially with their golden color. I think they are interesting and unique. They make me laugh.

I work with a variety of artistic mediums to express different ideas and emotions. This particular piece was inspired by my empathetic nature and a question that has often crossed my mind: do angels ever feel overwhelmed or overworked, constantly being called upon when they are needed most?

This is a fiber arts piece I made using fabric I inherited from my Great Grandmother after she passed away. I am inspired by my Great Grandmother's legacy as an artist to create works, try new things, and make mistakes. I chose to make a sunrise since it symbolizes new beginnings and the ability to try again. The sunrise reminds me that even if I mess up, there will be another day, another chance to improve, practice, and make something beautiful!

Howdy! I created my Barnside Blooms piece with air dry clay and old wood from a barn. Making this made me excited because I took some of my favorite flowers I see by my cow barn and sculpted them to last a lifetime. I was inspired by spring time and wanting to have flowers that are vibrant year round.

My name is Reagan. I like riding and drawing horses. I was inspired to draw a wild mustang picture after reading several books about wild mustangs. They are fascinating animals! My drawing makes me feel excited to one day see a mustang in the wild!

I love to read and sometimes I wish I could climb up a tree and read.I love birds they are very fascinating and beautiful.I love African elephants and how big they are.I used all these things and put them in a picture.

My name is Kai, and I’m 9 years old. I loooove drawing. I have been drawing for a looooooooong time. And I drew this because the FIFA World Cup is coming soon, and I like playing soccer with my friends. I tried to make this art piece of 4 people playing soccer at school, not at a stadium. This piece makes me feel excited and want to play soccer and can’t wait to. My favorite soccer team is the Whitecaps.

This was my first attempt at drawing with my oil crayons, so I drew one of the animals I've been learning about: an eagle. I practiced a blending technique to make the sky different colors.

My name is Liliana and what inspired me was my love for animals. My favorite kind of rabbit is a Lop Eared. I love drawing animals because I love animals! They are cute, sweet, and innocent. I hope to get a rabbit like this one day.

I am a cat lover and I was inspired by the full moon that was pink this month. My piece makes me feel powerful because the pink moon gives me energy. In my drawing, the pink moon was giving the cat energy, just like me!

I drew a JJ Maybank, a character from my favorite tv show, Outer Banks! This is my first graphite drawing, and the first person I've ever drawn! I learned a lot by drawing this and I really enjoyed doing it!

This is a drawing of a dragon made of shimmering crystal mosaic pieces, the background is filled with crystal roses and raindrops. Rainbows often symbolize hope and new beginnings, while roses are used to symbolize love, all of which are things that inspire me. This piece took 5 hours and 57 minutes, and was created in Procreate.

I am a natural Artist. Art flows through my hands. My art is gold. I have a natural talent in painting since a young child. I also create digital art drawing from cartoons I enjoy, i.e. Sprinkles, Rainbow Friends, Smiling Critters, Minecraft and more. My favorite art form is Angelic Art. I paint in all mediums: acrylic, metallic acrylic, oil, fluid art, Impasto (Italian Art), Suminagashi (Japanese Art), tempera, sensorial art, watercolor, glow in the dark artwork, airbrush painting and beyond!

This was inspired by things I’ve loved since I was a child, like princesses, their large sweeping gowns, and my old music box with a small ballerina. I wanted this to feel nostalgic, magical, and warm. Her appearance is based off myself, her tiara is inspired by the old plastic toy crowns I used to dress up with, and her dress is a fusion of all the different classical dress styles I love.

I really like Ariana and I wanted to draw this for fun.

I drew this because I love snakes and all the tiny details about them, their scales and eyes as they can be like human eyes or slits like cats and I have been practicing drawing hands for a bit and I am extremely happy with this peice and I hope that it means something.

Hi, I'm Kait. I love drawing and crafting with my mom. It's how I express myself. My mom and aunt inspired my piece. They are two of the strongest women I know. When I look at this drawing it gives me a warm comforting feeling almost like their strength is wrapped around me.

Hello, my name is Aisha. The artwork I made was created digitally and was inspired by gardens full of flowers and lakes. The scenery is supposed to be very calm and cheerful; however, the focus is also on the marionette. Her expression is very tense, and she seems scared despite her surroundings. This is to create a mood of discomfort, since the scenery is deceptive, because despite how serene the area is, she seems fearful. It makes the viewer inquire why she has a troubled expression.

I was inspired by the way ancient civilizations used the night sky to know where they were going. I wanted to convey that in my drawing, but also how things might look messy and complicated until you look at the big picture, like the art style of Starry Night.

In this piece, I wanted to combine bright happy colors to create a dress that feels like it belongs in a fairy tale. My goal is to become a fashion designer who makes clothes that make people feel confident.

Sometimes when I am board I start by drawing a line. And sometimes I am like "oh it could be this!" so this piece was used to represent that with a bunch of lines turning into a bunch of different things.

My art piece is inspired by the ocs from the book i am making.

What inspired my piece is my older sister. We are writing a manga together and the character in my piece is her OC Zayden.

Art can be so different and have so many meanings, but this piece inspires me because it shows that even the smallest, quiet things have strength and resilience. It reminds me that I am strong even when I’m quiet. By facing obstacles with heart and hard work, I’ll find my way through the overwhelming moments. Above all, it shows I can grow with quiet strength and steady hope, as long as I keep trying and have the confidence to do so.

I like the beautiful sunset in my picture. I think the frog looks peaceful and it makes me feel peaceful too!
