Hello, my name is Eunice. I’m eleven years old. I painted this using watercolor. I painted this because it showed a great amount of vitality and contrast. The word I thought would match this painting was “reflect”. “Reflect” because the afternoon sun reflects off of the cool water. “Reflect” because you are looking back to a day and reflecting the light, the good, out of it.

This drawing is inspired by my favorite books series, Wings of Fire. The dragon is stretching after waking up in the morning. Dragons are my favorite thing to draw. The dragon in this picture is happy, and that makes me feel happy too.

I wanted to make it because I love animals and porcipines are cute. this piece makes me happy

I'm a 10 year old girl with a younger sister. My sister wanted a character who could ride a horse and was named Harriet. I drew the picture and designed her outfit. Harriet is always up for an adventure and likes to explore!

my name is vania I wanted to make a realistic eye because I wanted to try something new I feel very happy that I did it it took me 1 or 2 hours to make it and I really liked how it turned out

I am passionate about art and attended many art lessons on Outschool. All these wonderful art teachers helped me to become more confident and to enjoy creating more than ever! - Our family got the long awaited Golden Retriever Rosetta. I was so happy to draw her, am really proud of my drawing. Without all the Outschool lessons I wouldn't have been able to draw her like that! - Outstanding Miss Shannon from "Ready Set Fitness" told me about this Showcase as I had told her how much I enjoy art.

I love nature and wanted to inspire other people to love nature too because I also love being outdoors. I wanted to do art about it.

I live in rural Vermont with my you get brother, parents, six dogs, six parakeets, a bunch of chickens and a turtle. I enjoy my favorite music, scene core style, dogs, and my OC in general

My piece was inspired by Dr. Seuss "The Lorax" and by the plaque that the Apollo 11 astronauts left on the Moon, declaring that they had come in peace for all mankind. Both inspired the main idea of the piece: everyone and everything is dependent upon everyone and everything else, and together we can do almost anything. Apollo 11 also gave my piece it's theme: space! I feel like I did a good job, especially on the Moon, and that my piece conveys what it's meant to convey.

I made this piece because I love dogs and mice. I think that this piece is very colorful, and I like anything that is colorful, especially if it explodes. Mickey made a cake, and Pluto wanted it, but Pluto is a dog, and dogs aren't supposed to eat certain types of cake. Mickey baked Pluto a dog-friendly cake, so they can eat cake together. I showed my mom and she liked it. I was a bit surprised because she hates mice, but she told me that Mickey wasn't a mouse for some reason. I'm very confused.

My names rosie this is what inspires me its some family mcyt youtubers and the main character of all my fav animes their all who inspire me to do art and make things

This piece was inspired by a dream I had where I was walking through a garden of mushrooms with eyes and the sky was clear blue, so I decided to make a piece of my dream from memory so I can remember that dream over and over again. It reminds me of the days where I always loved to play with plants and flowers in my back yard. That activity always made me happy.

I did this piece because it made me feel good about myself, it made feel like a good dancer because I love to dance, I like to feel free and wild. I feel like a blossoming Magnolia flower when I dance. like a flower waiting to blossom.

Hi! My name is Keegan. I love to read, write, and draw, and I thought that as a artist it would be fun to submit one of my drawings in this contest. The one I chose is a picture of the main character of a book I'm going to write, Dawn, climbing out of an underground city that was not treating her well. I think it is inspiring of her to do that, instead of just staying there. Thank you for reading about my drawing!

I wanted people to feel happy, cozy, and snug as bug! I love Christmas and waiting for presents in the morning. When I think of Christmas, I think of a crackling fire, a bright Christmas tree, and snuggled up on the couch watching snow fall.

I just moved to a new house and there is a horse across the street that has become my new best friend. He comes to the fence to greet me and I love to feed him carrots and he loves to see me everyday. He loves when I pet him and cuddle his nose and I actually love it too just as much as he does.

I am a 12 year middle school student. This piece gave me peaceful. It represents life's journey doesn't have to be challenge, it can be moving forward with ease, clam and purpose.

I LOVE to paint. What inspired this art was how much I like making rainbows, hearts, and sunsets so why not put them together.

I am 10 years old and I like my butterfly picture because it reminds me of how we gets caterpillars every year and get to watch them grow and change. Being able to release the butterflies into our garden is so rewarding.

My name is Leni Gless. I am 11 years and am a 6th grader in Chapel Hill, NC. I love to write stories and draw scenes from my stories to make it come to life. The stories I am currently writing, “Knights of the Impossible”, inspired this drawing. It shows the two main characters from my book, Ariana and her dragon Juco, in their kingdom. The cherry trees around the castle are what make the kingdom special. It makes me feel excited to continue writing my story and draw more scenes.

I like learning about space and I come from a cowboy family. So I created something that shows both sides of what I like.

Hello! My name is Arberleah but most people call me Leah. I live in a small town and have been homeschooled my whole life, so I have always had lots of time to explore my passions. What I am most passionate about is my art. Recently I have been getting back into reading and exploring fictional worlds once again, and now images come to me so vividly as i read, I just have to get them out of my head and onto canvas. I hope my art can remind everyone to never stop looking for inspiration.

Arabian Horse on the Mountain top! Horses inspired me to make this piece of art! I love horses and I hope to become a veterinarian one day!

This is the original version of Godzilla. During his first appearance in 1954 he was black and white, so I decided that using his original colors would keep a faithful design to his debut appearance, and would also feel original for today's standards. Without his first appearance and that original idea of him the franchise of Godzilla would have never started in the first place, so choosing this design is meant to give respect to the first model that ever came out.

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!

I have been drawing since I was 4. Now I am passionate about animals and conservation. This year I started painting, so that my sketches pop with color and display the diverse beauty of the animals and their environments. A documentary of a giant squid inspired me to draw this. I feel overjoyed to be able to capture the beauty of this animal rarely seen while it’s alive. Fun fact: I like painting to the beat of music. I like to let my brush strokes dance with the beat. It makes me smile.

I'm Zuwena, and I really like old cartoons. I made this piece inspired by one of my favorites, Mysterious Mose, because it got into the public domain recently. Also I just wanted to depict how loving and being loved in return chases away all negative and mean things people might say about you.

Hello! I am a young artist who likes to draw digitally, traditionally, and I also create animations! This piece was for my godfather; showing all the fun times we had together in our little group of me, my brother, my friend, and my friend’s brother (the gang:).

This painting represents the love I have for animals. And yes, I’m the kind of kid who watches a bird feeder for hours. When I spot a small sparrow, I don’t view him as an annoyance; I see him as a creature who has friends, a life, and a personality. This mountain lion’s gaze shows the trauma he’s experienced, the loss he has endured, and life he has known. It inspires me to know that even when life is tough, there is always a way out.

Hii!! I'm Bianka and I drew this because I really like Beabadoobees music! Especially "All I did was dream of you". I'm really proud of this piece because I think it does kinda look like Beabadoobee (⁠ ⁠╹⁠▽⁠╹⁠ ⁠)

I just love creating! I created this after one of my classes talked about Picasso.

My name is River. For most of my life, the ocean, the city, art and games have inspired me. I grew up by the ocean,the salty sea makes me happy. I've always loved the tech lights and tall buildings in cities like New York and Tokyo. I love video games, particularly retro-games. As you can see, I also love art, especially drawing, building and acting. And of course I love cats!

basketball really inspires me, so I made a pixel art picture of an hourglass pouring dream sand. It shows a classic basketball and hoop.

This piece was inspired by my mom because it is a bunch of things that she loves in one painting. It is also good practice because I want to be an artist one day.

When Marnie was there is a Studio Ghibli movie you can find on HBOmax. I like Marnie because she's really pretty and fun to draw.

this dress makes me think of lavender and I love lavender I love the shade of purple

Everyone should believe in themselves even when the going gets tough.

My name is Raya. I really enjoy fashion design, and I got inspired for this piece at a beach. I always loved how the waves roll and overlap. The ocean truly is a work of art. I hope that you like my art! Please vote🫶🫶

Batman is the original style of comics art that inspired the anime that I like to draw. -Phoenix

My name is Naree and I am 9 years old. This art piece makes me feel proud of myself for making this. The thing that inspired this piece was my mind. The idea just simply popped into my mind; a mermaid drifting through the sea with fish, holding a bubble.

I got into art a few years ago. I tried out different styles, and I found I enjoyed fantasy drawings. My inspiration for this drawing was to make people feel as if they were in a fantasy world. The dragon I drew, the colors I used, and my background all conveyed a world of myths. It made me feel imaginative, creative, and proud of my work. I hope to create more pieces like this.

This piece was inspired by the Greek myth of Persephone and Hades. It depicts a young Persephone, before she meets the king of the underworld. This is one of my favorite Greek myths, and I even wrote a song about it! I think this is one of my best pieces yet, and hope you like it!

Watercolor is my favorite kind of art. I made this painting because I love my hometown, New York City. New York can feel loud and exciting, but it is also colorful and full of life. I wanted to paint a small scene that reminds me of that feeling. In the middle of my painting there is a lucky cat holding up both paws. Lucky cats are supposed to bring good luck. In my picture, the cat is wishing good luck to the city and the people who live here. I hope people who see my painting feel happy.

My name is Cason I’m 10 years old I’ve been drawing for a long time and I’m excited about the art competition

I love bright colors and cool textures. I am always looking for fun ways to make my art pop! I was inspired by Pop Art and how one thing can look so different in a bunch of colors. I used bubble wrap as a stamp for the background. It looks like giant sprinkles. It was so satisfying to dip the bubbles in paint and press them down! This art work makes me feel happy and energized. All the neon colors remind me of a sunny summer day when I’m about to eat my favorite ice cream!

My artwork is called “Circle of Leaves.” I painted it on a real plate and divided the circle into eight sections. Three sections represent the seasons that have leaves: spring, summer, and fall. The other five sections show leaves in different colors such as purple, orange, yellow, red, and green. I used contrasting colors in the background to make the leaves stand out. Leaves are beautiful and colorful, and they make me feel calm and happy.

Me my brother and our friend had a craving to do legos and we worked on this build for about a week. We all agreed this is the best Lego build we’ve ever made. And worked very hard on it because there was a big storm and we couldn’t go outside.

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.

My name is Andrew. I drew the frog because it looks cool and cute. When I see it, it feels like I have a little pet with me.

Hi I'm Ella what inspired my drawing was my dogs. I love to draw all kinds of animals. It makes me happy to draw them because they are so cute. I drew my dogs with pencil.

~ Sun and Moon, sisters in soul, pass each other in a fleeting moment of wonder; dancing in starlight. ~ Hello, thank you for reading this and viewing my art! My name is Madeline and I've always loved making art, but I didn't start digital art until 2020 during the pandemic. Since then I have enjoyed following my art journey wherever it has led me. The inspiration for this piece came from eclipses as the concept has always fascinated me, and I recently viewed one from my backyard.

My grandparents live in Rome and I would like visit London and Rome. It’s a magical bridge that can take you to different places. The colors are bright and make me feel happy. My favorite parts are the Colosseum and the colors of the water. The person on the bridge is me.

I made this piece in an art camp. I took creative liberty for the fence and the background.

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 am inspired by so many things, everyday: Media—with my favourite mysteries and my sister’s desperately awkward romance anime. Work—with the vast number of stories I see in shifts at the library. Family—with my sister’s brilliant mind and own art pushing me to create. In this piece, I wanted to combine all my inspirations through the lens of a day at my desk, with scenes popping off paper scraps in a self portrait of artistic inspiration.

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 like drawing anime and I like this movie.

I made this piece based off of a book that I read. In the book, this girl (Willa), has a satchel, and it is full of all these little trinkets as shown on the artwork, including jewelry and bows. This drawing makes me feel proud, because I think that it turned out really well and really captured the feel of the book.

Hello my name is Benny O., and the inspiration for my art is my sister, Charlotte O., who is also submitted. Bye!

I really love cherry blossoms. I also really love drawing people wearing ruffled clothing or wrinkles. The two just formed together on my paper. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. I had considered adding pink, but when I set my pencil down, it just felt finished.

I’m an autistic artist. I draw to better understand the world around me. This is a gouache painting I did during a recent frigid spell here where temps were hitting -40. It calmed me to think of the animals tucked safely away.

2026 is the Year of the Horse in the Chinese lunar calendar. Both my grandpas, from my dad’s side and my mom’s side, were born in the Year of the Horse. I like horses because they are cool and strong. I drew a horse’s head for the Year of the Horse and used my imagination to make it special. I felt very happy while making this artwork. I hope people smile when they see my horse.

I was inspired by survival in the wild. In my painting, a girl and her cat are camping in the wilderness. There are many different trees and plants around them, and many shades of green that make the forest look full of life. In the middle of the picture, there is a warm campfire lighting up the girl. She is fishing by the river with her cat beside her. You can see their reflections in the water. Far away in the wilderness, there is a rainbow that you can faintly see in the sky.

My name is Zoey I am 13 years old. I have been homeschooled my whole life and I love my warrior cats role playing class on Tuesday nights. Currently Warrior Cats is my favorite series I loved the Power of 3 and that’s what inspired me to create this picture

I really enjoyed making this self portrait. It reflects the most dignified version of myself, and really speaks to the responsibilities a hold. I painted this piece with acrylic markers, and I spent a whole afternoon on it rather than doing my Homework…don’t worry I still got the homework done. :D what do you think? Worthy of a vote?

My favorite duck Sammy who loves to eat and swim.

Hi! My name is Wesson, and I am just 8 years old! I love cats, and my cat Bowser is why I sketched this cartoon drawing of him with a mouse toy. He is a big fluff-ball, and it is fun to watch him play. I feel happy and loved by my cat, and I wanted to share him with you.

I like cats and drawing! Cardamom and Putchie are my cats, and they are really cute. They make me feel very happy and I like them a lot.

I like Anime

I live in Alaska I love animals, horses are my favorite animal. I have 2 pet parakeets, 2 pet cats, and 3 pet goats. I painted this piece in my watercolor class. I have never been very confident in drawing/painting people, this is one of the first paintings I have done of a person and I am very proud of how it turned out.

We follow the Hipbee explorers on YouTube and go gold panning every summer. They were the inspiration and I'm very happy about it.

I'm Scout a nonbinary kid who like to make art about my books and this piece is one of my character's arcs their name is CREATOR

I love the show and he is my favorite character.

Hello, my name is Sophie, and this is my art piece for the Outschool art contest! Something that inspires me, is other artists, like my Mom, artist that have entered into the contest (all of the art on here is AMAZING) and just artists everywhere! I think it’s really cool to see how people draw and how their art style is different then others.

The fish were a great joy for the piece and the curves of water I thought added a great look. I did the background in acrylic paint and the fish in Sharpie, some I DID NOT SHARPIE. I like any type of art as long I'm DOING ART and HAVING FUN! Because ART IS NOT ART IF YOU ARE NOT HAVING FUN.

My name is Mila and I'm 12 years old. I love art, and this piece is inspired by the YA novel I'm currently writing. The two girls have yet to meet in real life, but feel a pull toward each other.

I am a student who enjoys drawing and expressing my feelings through art. This artwork shows a child holding the Earth, which represents my hope for world peace. I was inspired by the idea that even small hands can protect our planet. Creating this piece makes me feel calm and hopeful, and it reminds me to care for others and the world we share.

Hi! I am Rafael and my piece is a mix of all things I love. It's a fantasy world called Owlia, the creature with the big nose is a dragon I created called Pigspikoop, I drew myself on top of a hill with my dog Yogi, an owl (my favorite animal) perched on my shoulder and a creature called Flybei. I'm from Colombia and the bird I drew at the right bottom corner is a type of bird there. I love history and aviation so I drew a castle and planes flying in the background, one on a runway platform.

This painting represents anxiety and to make people feel like they are not alone because no one is and everyone goes through things.

This picture makes me feel happy. I was thinking of painting like I was in the sky looking down.

My name is Paulina, I am seven years old. I live in a farm in Oregon. I like horses, I like drawing . I love my horse! I want to have a real one. 🙂

This art piece is a big step with my art skills, I would have never thought I’d end up being able to do a self portrait.. but here I am! So this piece inspires me by my improvement and where I’ll be in the future!

Hi, my name is Coraline.This piece is a block print.it was inspired by my trips to Paris and Lisbon. I loved watching the pigeons. They are one of my favorite animals because they are intelligent, cute, silly, and most importantly unique.I gave my pigeon a hat to highlight it being so different among birds so i guess this piece was inspired by differences. They are one of the weirdest birds and I think that makes them infinitely more interesting. This print makes me feel playful and happy.

This beautiful Scarlet Macaw is listening to the sound of nature and wondering if she should stay or fly away into the canopy of the Amazon. I am inspired by nature. I am 13 years old. Art brings me peace, so when I draw the nature around me, I feel we are one.

I thought it would be really fun to try drawing a dragon eye. I'm very proud of it because I learned how to draw realistic eyes as well as improvise the shape because dragons don't exist in real life.

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.

I made this art piece for a homework assignment. It is inspired by the painting "Surprised!" by Rousseau. I love dragons, and so I remade my own version to include them. This art piece, "The Roar of Thunder" changes the focus from the main ground to the background, revealing two dragons. It shows that there is more than one way to make beautiful art.

I wanted to paint something, and the reference really spoke to me. I went to a painting place to make it. It is a very calming piece.

My name is Krisha and I drew a Fennec Fox on the Procreate app. I think I did a good job!!!! I want people to feel calm when they look at this picture because of the warm colors and the fox’s relaxed position. I want people to imagine going on ian adventure with the fox! Also let me give you a quick fun fact: they can hear underground!!!

Hi, I am Cindyll, and I am 15. For the last year, I have been studying and drawing faces. I found myself especially drawn to eyes. To me, the eye is an amazing creation of beauty and intricacy: the vibrant colors, the way the light reflects on the iris, and the way that they can express emotion that words can’t. I wanted to capture that in my art. In my piece, there is a window reflected in the eye. The eye is truly the window to the soul. You just have to take the time to look.

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. I hope that you enjoy thinking about who lived in this house. for my drawing I used: acrylic paint, oil pastel, and colored pencil. It took me 4 weeks to complete-i made the house bent and uneven to make it look old but cozy.

I would to enter this. I really hope you guys like it.

I did a collage out of magazines!
