Hi! My name is Anita and I always get inspired when I go outside to the nature. It calms all my stress away while I sense all the peace coming to me. I see the plants flowing, and I hear the wind gently brush in my ear. In this artwork, I make sure I include everything about what I feel about nature and how it inspires me.

I named this Spark of Imagination. I based this drawing on the Five Nights at Freddys (FNaF) character Toy Bonnie. What inspires me about FNaF is the creator took one small idea and created something huge. That sparked my imagination. I began to create and draw my own characters. When I think my creations look bad, I remeamber that he kept going so I should too.

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.

I started not knowing what to draw and the shape turned into a ghost shape. The ghost is crying while a Ghostbusters vacuum is trying to suck it up. It's a sad picture but I had fun deciding what to make it. I love ghosty and hope the Ghostbusters don't get him.

The color palette of the sky is all I want to stare at. The way the sky is different each day, yet so beautiful, brings me joy and inspires me to make each of my art pieces unique in its own way.

I am Amina, and I love sketching on my pad, and coloring on procreate. My inspiration for the piece was actually a homework assignment! I was asked to do a drawing of my own deity, god or goddess to present, and here it is! This girl you see here is Equality, the deity of balance. She is the one who keeps things equal between humans, plants and animals. This piece makes me feel proud.

Hi my name is Valentina and I love drawing and sewing.I also love bows and bedazzling things so I had to put it in my art piece!! I was inspired by my fashion design class. We did runway fashion this week. It makes me feel happy and joyful!! I hope you love it.🩷🎀

This is my imaginary friend I designed.

I really enjoy art and it makes me happy. This design of art was inspired by a comic I read.

My name is Emerson and I am 8 years old. I love to draw because I love seeing the final product of all the lines that you sketch. I was inspired by an anime character who overcame a difficult challenge and this was how he came out alive. It reminds me that I need to keep going through all obstacles even when tired or beat.

I’m a big fan of poppy playtime and the prototype is the villain of the game. The new game just came out and that where he appeared I was inspired to challenge myself to draw him

This is what happened when I found a passion for Amigurumi! I started crocheting six months ago after my friends on Outschool introduced it to me! I just love making my stuffies and giving them to people! This craft has really made me happy and I love it.

I made this piece because I feel it represents the balance between humanity and nature. My inspiration was a photo of a girl and a heron posed like this, though I decided to further detail it and add my own flair and deeper meaning. This drawing makes me feel very happy and at peace.

Copper's eyes are the focal point of the piece, nailing them was my inspiration. The drawing makes me feel accomplished and capable as an artist and excited to grow in the skill.

I'm a reader. I love dogs, so I wanted to draw one for this contest. My piece was inspired by one of my dogs named Spotty. My drawing makes me feel happy because dogs are really special to me.

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 piece describes the changes in my life. The time on the clock, 8:20 is around the time that I was born, an important key detail in my life. Some other changes in my life were moving houses, changing schools, and learning to love swim. The wide variety of colors I used in my artwork, they are all different, even in the slightest bit. This represents how everyone is different, and you can be your own self. No one don't need to feel ashamed, because everyone is unique in their own way.

Hi, I’m Jade annd I love to draw! This is my original art piece, “Jake”! Jake is an original anime inspired character. I enjoyed this contest and I’m happy to share my creation with Outschool.

My name is Sebi and I love penguins. I invented a world where there's a team of Ninja Penguins that save other animals and defeat evil bad guys. In this painting they're celebrating after saving all the other penguins that were captured by Evil Richard and put in a zoo. They're all free now and the Ninja Penguins are having tea! Ninja Kick KaPow!

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 have been learning about different animals, and really like tropical fish. They are different colors and shapes, so I decided to paint one. I chose these colors as they are bright and stand out. I added paint splashes for the bubbles in the sea.

Hello everyone, My name is Debasmita and I am a creative teenager who enjoys drawing, piano, and public speaking. I have drawn the famous “Hogwarts Castle” from the Harry Potter franchise. I have loved Harry Potter since I was very young, and even now I feel that Hogwarts, although fictional, is a place I belong. The plot and characters demonstrate themes of perseverance, growth, and determination. I felt inspired by this beautiful story and wanted my art piece to mirror these ideas. Thank you!

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.

This artwork was created by Angeliki with the guidance of her art teacher, Ms. Z, when she was 9 years old. She loves water and exploring nature. This picture makes her feel happy and also gives her a sense of tranquility. She likes it a lot because she hopes to be in a real situation like this one day.

Whiskers and Delicacies is about a cat dreaming of yummy fish. I love cats because they are fluffy and cute, and even though I love dogs more, I started with cats because they are simpler to draw.

I am kind, sweet, and sometimes spicy. What inspired me to do this is that I love pesto pizzas and I drew another one that looked so cute. This picture makes me feel good.

I wanted to do this drawing because I really like going to the beach and I think sunsets are really beautiful and I think I wanted to try to do and see how mine would look so I can make my own sunset in a drawing.

I have enjoyed drawing, especially Anime, for many years. I have been working on transitioning my sketches to digital art. I like this character because of the crossover between human and kitty, and the overall happy vibe.

When I see a beautiful night sky, it inspires my creativity. I love doing digital art and the stars twinkling in the sky feels magical to me.

I love drawing. It makes me happy when I imagine myself on the Art Magazine cover model.

I hope that people feel happy when they see this drawing. I fed a rainbow lorikeet at the National Aviary, and I wanted to show the beautiful colors and really great feeling to everyone. I made colorful flowers and ants going weeee and jumping around with friends because all of nature is special and my favorite.

My name is Izzy. I have two pet bunnies. I like to play outside and ride my bike. I drew my picture for my Outschool animal drawing class. I chose a clown fish because i thought it would be interesting to do its patterns. Also, I know they have bright colors and I wanted to see what it looked like with shading instead of colors. I feel happy and accomplished with how my drawing came out!

Nature has always inspired and delighted me. I believe there is a story hidden in everything, and my ambition is to capture that in my art. This sketch expresses my feeling as I grow roots in a new community. "If you truly love nature, you will find beauty everywhere." - Vincent van Gogh

Hi! My name is Maisie. I really like drawing little people. I feel like this is one of the best drawings that I have done. Art is something I'm good at and enjoy. I like to spend time in my room drawing different things.

I was recommended by my teacher Monica to compete in the contest. This animation shows how I love to animate but have no motivation to do it. This animation makes me feel proud and I really like it.

I love drawing animals, especially animals in the wild. I drew a lion cub who is curious and loves learning and exploring, just like me. When I was drawing, I tried to show its soft fur and curious face. It makes me feel happy to imagine it going on adventures and discovering new things. I hope people see how playful and brave the cub is.

I really devote myself to drawing and really love drawing animals like cats and dogs! I am deeply proud of how far I’ve gotten in art!!! My piece was inspired by cats, because they’re so cool! (obviously.) It makes me feel very proud of how great I’ve gotten at art!!!

I take drawing classes on Outschool and I like to draw every day. I really like drawing characters and working on shading. In this drawing, I tried to make the face expressive and added details like the eyes, hair, and hand. I was inspired by characters I like and added my own details. It feels calm and a little mysterious, like she is thinking something but not saying it.

I love animation and wanted to create art that reflects something magical.

Hi my name is Vivian! This is a Starry Night inspired painting that I made using palette knives. You might not be able to see in the picture, but the texture is spiked. This painting, and the original, make me feel calm. When painting this I felt a sense of awe for how difficult it would've been for Van Gogh to capture the beautiful scene.

My name is Koven and I was inspired by the desert. I love where I live with its tall saguaro cactus, warm sun, and even tumbleweeds and dirt. I like to wear a hat when the sun is hot and I thought it would be funny to show that on the saguaro cactus too! The desert is full of texture and I had fun using lots of mediums and textures in my piece!

My name is Ava. I love taking art classes from Mrs. Lauren and using watercolors. I liked doing this Hidden Tiger piece because it makes me feel like I am in an actual jungle watching a tiger staring at his prey.

I wanted to make a cool art work for this. and then i thought of a prison break sounds cool and unique, I also did a analogist colors or whatever its called, using only three colors

My name is Juniper and I am 10 years old. My artwork titled Unicorns in New York symbolizes possibility. Even in tough times, imagination can carry us somewhere new. That is why possibility inspires me the most, it can become anything and I want that for everyone!

I painted this to capture the simple joy of a small patch of flowers. I used watercolor to give them a soft but colorful and and bright feel, along with a simple bee to give life.

Hi! My name is Brooke and I love anime, manga, drawing, creating stories, and Jesus! It's hard to explain my inspiration for this art piece, but I will try. Basically my character Aiko Atsumari (the subject of my drawing) is looking back at the past, both the good and the bad, which is signified by the direction of the lighting and darkness in the art piece.

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.

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 made this art piece to show the coming of spring. I wanted to show how wonderful spring is, so I made this painting to show how a girl is going on a picnic because the weather is so nice. Spring is all about life blooming. Just like this art piece. Thank you!

I’m a young female artist. What inspired me to create this is wanting to draw something to represent life where others can’t see it. My artwork makes me feel at peace when I look at it.

I really like the colours in the sky when the sun goes down. I visited Beijing with my family in the summer and when I looked out the window I saw this. I wanted to paint it. I love painting and drawing.

I take a lot of insporation from the things I watch and write. This drawing is of one of my characters from a writing group I'm in. The character is a chaotic menace, who is bored all the time.

My name is Adelyn, in this art piece I made a peaceful nature scene because when I draw, nature is always an inspiration to me! This drawing represents the beauty of nature and my for passion for artistic expression through realism.

I love anime art and I try my best to make black and white drawings but this time I made it in color. It makes me feel amazing to draw anime and I hope to draw for marvel or Disney one day

I love art, and when people hear that they ask me what kind of art I like. The thing is that I like all kinds of art painting, building, sketching I found that art is something that I can use to express myself. I made this peace because of a book that I like to read that's called Warriors, and it's about cats. About a year ago they made a graphic novel, and anytime something exiting was about to happen a bird would show up. So what if it was like that in real life, could you imagen?

I am in high school and have been learning about lots of amazing artists and painting with Ms. Jenn Augustin for about three years. I am influenced by so many artists and really like to express myself in my art. This is called "Sunset" and I tried to emulate the bold, bright colors I sometimes see, and taking it further. I like making brush strokes that have movement and flex, and I like to blend colors to create something more.

I love how I can express myself through art and how every artist has their own unique style. My favorite art styles are realistic and anime, and I also like inking and working with color. My piece was inspired by the feeling when you see something beautiful, and how it takes your breath away. I wanted it to look like the golden glow of the star was reflected in her face. The piece reminds me of the feeling of awe.

I love cats because they are so bossy and royal.

I'm nine and from Australia. I drew this picture in a self-paced Anime drawing class on Outschool. I love it because the girl looks so happy and confident. Seeing this picture makes me happy, and being happy inspires me to be creative and keep drawing.

Hello I made my dragon by hand. I used my imagination to design Fluffy and it is a dragon puppet. I spent 3 hours on her and I am really proud of it. What makes it special is that I made it with my imagination. I was inspired by foxes and they're big ears. I control it with a base. I used paper, glue, tape, markers, and hot glue. Fluffy is a really nice bubbly and comforting dragon. ❤️❤️❤️

Something about me is that I like to play sports and I like math challenges. I drew this because it was sort of like the movie Inside Out with all the emotions people feel everyday. It makes me feel good because I worked hard on it and it is like a rainbow of emotions.

Something that inspires me is definitely animals, I love drawing all sorts of creatures, and I especially enjoy giving them bright and unique colors!

Hi I am Autumn. I like science, Art , math and music. I have fun playing soccer with my friends. I really like gumball because he makes me laugh and wanted to make him out of clay.

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 have been an ongoing Outschool student for 5 years and been improving my animations ever since. What inspired me to make this animation was my love for music, as that is what got me into animation in the first place. I am really proud of how this animation turned out, since it took a whole month to complete all on my own.

I love to draw and I love sports. Volleyball is entertaining and I watched a movie about it.

My art was inspired by my class.

I love to do art and I love playing outside, especially around flowers. What inspired this piece is how butterflies’ wings shimmer in the sunlight, which is why I wanted to create this. It makes me feel really excited, and when I’m feeling down, it helps me feel happy. The purple flowers have bowtie leaves because I was feeling silly, fun, and happy when I made it.

My name is Fia, and i like to draw and play with friends and family. One day my mom saw a cool art piece and when i tried it out really liked how calming and fun it was to make. It makes me feel like all my emotions are mixed together in a big ball.

My name is Santino. This piece was inspired by my imagination. It makes me feel proud of myself and happy.

My drawing classes inspired this picture, and I really like it and yeah.

I love drawing, especially animals because I'm also an animal lover. Our main thing was a snail in art class, and I made him a suit. My favorite animal is a fox so I drew one. I made the fox's cheeks and the fox and snail were looking at each other and so I made a heart to show they were in love. This picture makes me feel happy, proud, and love.

I am six years old and I love to create through drawing, painting and model making. I was inspired by Jim Dine to create this painting for my mother using mixed media like tissue paper, crayon and paints. The painting makes me feel happy as it uses the colors I love and the heart is full of love.

Hello! My name is Adalynn! This piece is inspired by my love for animals. While drawing it, I initially struggled because my cat's ears were too tall and skinny. I had mistakenly drawn over the ears with colored pencil, which made it impossible to erase. I overcame this problem by using a sand eraser, which was the perfect tool for the job. It was a risk to attempt a realistic drawing, but I'm very happy with the result. Thank you so much for your time, and I hope you enjoy my artwork!

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.

This is my dad's favorite animal and I made this for his birthday.

I’m 7 years old and love to draw. I do a weekly art class on outschool and draw everyday. I chose to draw a fox because I think they’re cute and cool.

I am inspired by Japanese cherry blossoms, and have presented that in my painting.

I made this because I lived in a city for 8 years and I loved it. The lights, the sounds, everything. It makes me feel at peace because I remember looking out the windows and hearing the honking of the horns, seeing the lights, and being up in a tall building being able to see everything below. And all of that, to me was very peaceful and calming.

My name is Agastya. I love painting, especially scenes from nature and the universe. Painting gives me peace and happiness. When I see the beauty of the world, it inspires me to explore more and imagine what lies beyond our boundaries. It also reminds me how important it is to take care of our Mother Earth and keep it beautiful by cleaning and recycling. Since life exists only on this planet, we all have a responsibility to protect it.

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.

I love to do art because it allows me to use my hands and helps me to focus. Art helps me to feel better by calming my mind. When I do art, I can be creative in making many characters. I enjoy making faces with lots of details. My art is called Dotty Frost. She is named Dotty Frost because she has on Poki dotted and frosted clothing. I love her shiny hair with one braid on each side. At the end of each braid, she has a claw to hold hearts, and other things. Dotty Frost is a kind character.

I'm inspired by game art

My name is Liam. I love animals and vehicles. They inspire me.

Hello! I love creating digital art on my iPad. I specifically love drawing people and or animals. What inspired my piece was lotus flowers, which you can find on the outside of the drawing. They're one of my favourite flowers, and I love drawing them. I wanted to create an art piece where I could draw a whole bunch of them! I love how colorful the drawing is; it makes me feel happy. I just love looking at it!

this art work makes me feel sad for the bird🐦‍⬛ on the left, let me explain. the bird on the left is using a jet pack, not its wings it is sad because now it has no perpous for its wings. while the bird on the right is using its wings soring freely and not a jet pack. the bird on left is using a jet pack because engineers went to far and now it can't fly without a jet pack the end.

I love creating art in any way I can, in this piece I used oil pastels which give you the ability to blend colors, create depth and even highlights

I enjoy all kinds of art from sketching with pencils to the flood of my watercolors on the paper. This was fun doing with acrylic paints, harder for me to blend, but I ended up really liking it.

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.

I am entering my art because the ocean inspires me so much. It is something my mom and I both love and it makes me feel happy and calm. I recently got to go scuba diving and seeing life underwater was way better than learning in a book. I love nature and animals and the ocean has so much of both. It is powerful but also peaceful. I love sitting with my mom, watching the sunset, and talking. Those moments are special to me and mean a lot. I love painting scenes, and my mom loves watching me.

My name is Wylder. I want to be a marine biologist and an artist when I grow up, so I like to make artwork of the ocean. I believe that we need to raise awareness about the ocean and its threats and art can do that. In Ocean Sunset I wanted to capture the vivid colors of a sunset and provoke feelings of harmony with nature.

I'm Luka, a great painter and my best artwork is painting by making splashes of colors together. The cracks and waves of this painting makes me feel like I'm looking at the water. My favorite type of art is abstract, and this is one of my favorite and best abstract paintings.

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.
