I like writing mystery stories. I drew this picture of the Benevolent Lodge Mystery Group to incorporate into a story idea. As I drew, I felt like I was stepping into their world—almost like I was one of the members. It made me feel curious, imaginative, and proud, because the more I worked, the more the group’s personality came to life on the page.

I am a multi media artist, sometimes I’m sewing, sometimes I’m drawing, and sometimes I’m sculpting.

I’m obsessed with nature. Our family spends half the year doing van life around the country. Mostly visiting beautiful mountains and oceans.

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.

Hi, I'm Bay and ever since I was little, I've loved drawing my favorite characters and making up my own, giving them past and motivation. I've also always loved role-playing (and later, DND). I could take a break from the real world and go on an epic quest. Then I got Minecraft. The fact that you could create your own world and style of playing was so inspiring. So I took those three interests and challenged myself to draw my Minecraft character, and I was happily surprised by the result!!

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.

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.

Since I wanted a happy ending, in the end he gets back up and starts again turning a bad thing into a good thing! Since its volume 1, I'm going to make more comics about robots in space.

I like to draw almost every day. I enjoy girl characters that do awesome things. It makes me feel happy. I was inspired to draw this when I watched Super Mario Bros the movie because Princess Peach is my favorite.

Doctor Doom is occasionally a villain, but usually just a nice leader trying to do what's right for his people, and he protects his country from sickness. Iron Man is a billionaire named Tony Stark who was not the best or nicest guy, but turned himself around and became the super hero Iron Man. That is a quick overview of the characters. They inspire me to work hard and be a good person too.

I found two trees at a place, one was in full bloom and it looked really pretty while, the other was completely dead looking. I was then inspired to draw two trees with one that is full of life, and the other dark. I thought the light bulbs in the back looked pretty, because the place I was at, had a string of light bulbs behind the trees.

Hi, I’m Mia. I was inspired to draw this by my love for cats! Though it is not my cat, which I have two, it reminds me of my cat. I used 2B for outlining and chalk pastels for coloring. I took the risk of at first using alcohol markers, and when I didn’t like it, I decided to use chalk pastels. I had to cut the cat out and glue it on another piece of paper. Thank you for your interest in my drawing!

I created this piece with acrylic paint, letting bold colors and movement guide the scene rather than trying to control every detail. The sky shifts from deep blue into warm bursts of gold and red, while the quiet crescent moon balances the intensity below. As I painted, I allowed unexpected marks and small imperfections to stay. Instead of taking away from the work, they add character and make it feel more real. To me, those moments aren’t flaws—they’re what bring the painting to life.
