Hi, I’m Autumn! My favorite type of art is sketching. My trip to Scotland and seeing the bagpipes inspired my piece. It makes me feel excited when I look at 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.

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:).

My aunt lives in Louisiana and drew a pelican. She sent me her drawing and encouraged me to draw my own. I sent my drawing back to her and she appreciated my effort. It was a challenge and fun at the same time.

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 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.

There was a battle long ago in this scene.

My name is Caroline. My artwork is inspired by NASA’s female astronauts who have helped expand human exploration of space. Their courage inspire me to dream about the future, to become an astronaut and explore outer space, to help humanity better understand the universe. The red and white koi (fish flowing around the astronaut’s helmet ) are known for swimming upstream, representing humanity’s determination to overcome challenges and push beyond limits even when faced with uncertainty.

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 like the game dandy’s world so I thought it would be cool to make an oc for like the alternate universes I make in my head so this is a more updated version of her this is Bowie

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 had a reference from Pinterest lol

This piece inspires me to go hiking and climbing big boulders and mountains while observing wildlife. I am super energetic with lots of enthusiasm, and I like to do rolls while dodging all of the trees and playing tag with my younger brother as we go on our weekly hikes.

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 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.

well i love cats and i love Christmas too so I decided to bring those two together and make kitty Christmas.

So I like to draw a lot of buildings, ranging from small lodges, to big skyscrapers. I got inspired by all the books I read (I read, a LOT), and decided to make a Storybook row about the fairytales. It makes me feel kinda' magical you know, like all these little details that make it feel alive.

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 Ellie. The Iron Giant is my favorite movie, and I think the character is really interesting. Drawing makes me happy, so I wanted to share my love of both with all of you.

I’ve always loved creating art. “Wolfychu Fanart” is a piece inspired by a story time animator on YouTube named Wolfychu, I’ve enjoyed her content for years and wanted to make something to express how much I appreciate her work. “Aurelia’s Rage” is a piece inspired by my story, which I’ve been writing for the past 6 years. It was also a way to experiment with monochrome colors, and see what my art would look like if i didn’t stress over it looking perfect, and just drew what I wanted.✨

I like to draw and listen to music and it helps me sometimes get out of reality.

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.

Good day to you. My name is Adaire Renee and I've alway been fascinated with painting and literature. This painting is inspired by the book, "Bridge of Clay" written by Markus Zusak. Hence the name of the painting. The book is strongly recommended though there is some crude language. I hope you like them both.

I love to be creative. It make me feel excited about summer time. It is based on a summertime favorite treat.

Hi I'm Mariah! Ever since I was little I've always enjoyed arts and crafts. I grew to love drawing when I realized how pretty art can be. Black beauty is what inspired this drawing. My parents always affirm me and teach me to embrace my natural beauty. I hope others look at this drawing and find confidence and self worth in the skin they are in because Black Is Beautiful and all are too!

I really love drawing portraits, especially the ones I've seen with flowing hair, and I really wanted to do my own. My drawing makes me feel happy, but also kind of like I'm in a fairy tale.

I drew this in my art class, and I like it because I've never drawn a dragon before. I like drawing new things because it makes me happy. I like drawing a lot because it's fun, and I want to illustrate books one day.

This is a character I created using ohuhu markers and sketching pencils.

I love to tell stories. I wanted to tell a story of my own in my picture and so I did. My picture is a story about a little mermaid, unicorn, and flying cat. They all are different and all have their own story but all of their stories are a story of my own.

I'm Kyla, an artist who loves creating characters and diving deep into their stories. The character featured here is one that I love very much, named Lieke. I wanted this drawing to evoke a feeling you have when you're on vacation, strolling the beach at sunset. It may feel melancholy; the setting sun bringing you ever closer to the end of fun times, but it's a beautiful sight that brings you joy nevertheless.

Hi!! I'm Sheherazade ;D I'm 12 yrs old I absolutely LOVE astronomy and outer space!!!! That's how I got inspired to make this piece. It makes me feel relaxed, at peace, and amazed because how how beautiful it truly is. I know it definitely looks nothing like real space butI hope ya still like it!!

Hi I am Eric, I painted a story about a angry cat chasing a small golden mouse. The cat's anger is like the thunder and lightning, they strike toward the mouse. The mouse is scared but also brave, it doges the strikes and will reach to it's home. Inside the cave, there is a TNT prepared, if the cat follows, it will be trapped.

I am Lydia and this is my 5th year of doing art. I was inspired to create this piece by my pet cats who I love very much. The only trouble was that I also love dragons! The end result was a dritten. This little guy stares at the ocean ready to fly fearless as the lightning crashes and the waves roll over the rock he is standing on. I really enjoyed creating this piece, and I hope you enjoy seeing it.

I love making art and this piece is one of my favorites overall. I did this piece in class and I was very happy with how it turned out after shading it in and taking my time with this artwork.

I like ballet, art, and I love my sister! I’ve been in the nutcracker twice I think I’m very good at art. And my piece reminds me of being with my family.

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!

I do gymnastics and love challenging myself to try new things, so she is a very inspiring person! I feel very proud when I look at this piece of art!

I am Layla, and I love a lot of mascot horror (a media that makes a setting with a mascot scary!) I made this art piece with a character from Indigo Park, which is a game I love a lot! I think Rambley the Racoon, who is the mascot and digital guide character! I decided to draw him to show my love for the game!

my name is Elliot. i like space, it inspires me so i desided to make a space animation

I have always loved outer space, but for longest time I did not like dinosaurs. Two things changed my mind about dinosaurs this last year. 1 - I began playing a video game that taught me all about dinosaurs. 2 - My mom made up bedtime stories for my brothers and I featuring the characters in my drawing. When I look at this picture I feel like I have connected three things that are very special to me, my family, astronomy and my new appreciation for dinosaurs all in one piece of art.

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.

My artwork is inspired by my grandpa and watching beautiful, colorful sunsets. I always wanted to get to know my grandpa, so in my artwork is me and him walking in a beautiful winter forest, as the sun sets. My grandpa always dressed nicely, and wore a nice old fashion hat. He loved nature and taught my mom how to throw river rocks that skid on lakes. My mom always tells me stories about him, and what he was like. It takes me to a different time and I am happy he was my grandpa.

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.

My name is Devon and I love art and crafting. I love to painting with watercolor or drawing with color markers. My favorite times are when I just paint what is on my mind, like this painting of the ocean titled "Birds Flying Into the Sunset".

My favorite duck Sammy who loves to eat and swim.

My drawing is titled “Time.” It shows a watch my father received from his father and later gave to me. The watch is special because it has been passed down through my family. It reminds me of the strong connection between my grandfather, my dad, and me. When I see it, I think about the special moments we have shared. The watch makes me feel proud and more mature, and it represents our family tradition and the memories we will carry for generations.

I’ve always loved art as long as I can remember, but the aspect I love most about it is how a person can imagine what it is. I hope that is what this piece represents to you. This was also a way for me to express different art styles that I admire. My portfolio is primarily all gaming related, and this is my first attempt at drawing...well...myself. I hope you enjoy it!

When I was younger I didn’t like any sports to play in my free time. Then I discovered my passion. Drawing. Soon I later learned that the pen and paper was my power. Every artwork I make makes me feel proud and want to continue my art journey. From what began as a stickman evolved into an artwork that made people happy. :)

I like drawing animals and one of my favorites is a sloth. It makes me feel happy that my sloth looks cute and it shows my passion for animals.

I love to draw and paint, and dance and play music, and read. I have always enjoy watching a pencil glide across a page as an image forms, taking shape and gathering emotion. Little lines ,some bold some soft, create the art we see, turning a blank paper or canvas into something beautiful. It is a truly incredible thing, the way we, as humans, see the world around us. Perspective is intriguing.

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.

Hi! My name is Sami and I am 16 yrs old. I want to be a fashion designer when I'm older, so I decided to do a fashion inspired piece. From left to right the different era's are: Ancient Greece, Renaissance, Victorian, 1950's and Modern Day. Ancient Greece is an extra special era to me as I love Greek Mythology. My picture shows the ladies holding hands to represent the various era's of fashion history that designers still draw upon today.

A lot of stuff inspires my art. The main focus is my robolx avatar. I also drew some of the YouTubers and Roblox characters i like. I also made Tails from Sonic, Kuromi, and Monchhichi. My art made me feel a mix of emotions like nerves and excited. \(>0<)/

When I was in Japan it really inspired me so I drew it on a piece of paper . Whatever you think of do it.

I am learning to draw anime style so I can make a manga. This drawing was inspired by an MHA character and I named her Pearl after my cousin.

When I made this artwork, I felt deeply connected with the inspiration flow between my reality and fantasies. Art is the one thing fulfilling the gap between what’s real and what’s not - this artwork describes my gap between fiction and reality.

I created this piece to show the feeling that even when no one is around, something is still watching. I used a single eye to represent awareness and presence in silence. This piece made me feel both calm and uneasy at the same time, reminding me that we are never completely alone, even in stillness.

The picture is of the artist Prince. It is based off of the Parade album cover by Prince and The Revolution.

My family took an RV trip around the US and we saw this pretty waterfall. I was taking a landscape drawing class and was excited to incorporate what I was seeing and what I was learning.

I love all animals

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.

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.

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.

My name is Madissan, and I enjoy expressing myself through art. I created this drawing as a way to practice and improve my shading skills, which is something I’ve been really interested in learning. I wanted to see how I could use light and dark values to make my artwork look more realistic and detailed. This piece was inspired by my desire to challenge myself and grow as an artist. While working on it, I focused on blending and adding depth to bring the drawing to life. Art makes me feel good.

I am a multi media artist, sometimes I’m sewing, sometimes I’m drawing, and sometimes I’m sculpting. This is my most recent piece, she is a bengal tiger, her name being a reference to life of pi’s bengal tiger Richard Parker. She makes me feel peace, she is content with comfort but she still looks for things other people won’t see.

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!

This art is a mix of watercolor, collage, and pencil drawings. It is inspired by my best friend.

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 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 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.

If I can draw an angel I can draw anything.

Hi, my name is Dmitri. My grandpa taught me how to do stained glass several years ago. I love marine biology and anything having to do with oceans. I have a friend who has a salt water aquarium and her angelfish was born without a tail. I created my very own pattern for this stained glass window. It was a lot of fun to work on and have to learn where my glass points needed to be.

So proud of this Clydesdale I drew. I worked very hard and love the perspective of staring at it from below

I’m Harper. I love to read and art. My favorite colors are pink, green, and yellow. I love butterflies and they have never been in the sea before and I wanted to let her explore a new world. The sea creatures welcome her and are kind to her. It makes me feel happy and proud that she is brave enough to explore somewhere new.

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.

I wanna give the money to the homeless kids that have no money

Hello! I’m Eva, and I’ve created a drawing inspired by Ejae. The doodles in the center represent lyrics from her songs. She began singing Kpop songs at 3, but was rejected as a Kpop trainee at 23 after 10+ years of very hard work. The stripes represent her hardship. Yet Ejae didn’t give up, and is now a singer/songwriter, and the singing voice of Rumi from “Kpop Demon Hunters”. She can relate to the character a lot, herself. The color splotches represent emotion. I love drawing and music, too.

After my mom introduced me to the Series from the library, I have been obsessed With keeper of the lost cities. I am a major reader and I’m already at book 5 (Lodstar) out of a round 10 Books.

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

Hi! I'm Esme and I love drawing hedgehogs, acrylic painting, and paper quilling my own designs. My submission is of my new cousin, Lucy. Lucy has a cute turned-up nose like my aunt does, and I love her so much. I am proud of my drawing of her because I used all of the drawing skills I know: shading, blending, and making the shapes before drawing the details.

I just wanted to remind people that out of all the professions, farmers might be the most important one. Without them, we don't eat. They do not call in sick, or and the industry never gets to take any days off, or we starve.

I am a 15 year old artist making money of art styles pertaining to wood. Like pyrography, wood turning, wood carving, chip carving, power carving, etc!

I like to draw interesting creatures.

I am a young artist. I love, nature, animals, drawing, and ballet. This year I've learned a lot about drawing animals from my teacher Jessie and it really helped me express my art better. I picked a tiger because I wanted to draw an animal in the jungle. When I see a picture of a tiger in the jungle, I feel brave and peaceful. It inspired me to be brave and submit my art to this contest.

I love animals, I also think it was a cute project to do.it makes me feel happy because this is my best drawing ever.

I love art and have just started doing watercolor. This is one of my favorites yet. I like how they are going in a circle and take up the whole page. I also like the colors and how well they go together. This makes me happy.
