My name is Michele and I have always loved Tim Burton films, including the one and only "Alice in Wonderland" remake. My inspiration was the world of Tim Burton. I have always been a fan starting with The Nightmare Before Christmas when I was little. I wanted to bring a favorite character of mine to life. This artwork makes me feel proud and happy because I put my best effort into it. The Mad Hatter is my favorite character because he is funny and I love his colorful design.

Be brave enough to live the life of your dreams!

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.

I love to design cake decorations, so I drew this cupcake on a picnic blanket which makes me happy.

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.

★ This awesome sauce artwork I made is inspired by peaceful and happy moments in nature. I love how animals can live together in a calm, playful way, like sharing a quiet stream or relaxing in the sun. Nature inspires me because it feels gentle, colorful and full of small, joyful moments. It makes me feel safe and happy. :D No matter what I draw, it almost always connects back to nature through the colors, patterns and peaceful feelings I see :] ★

I am 10 years old and do school at home. I have been painting with watercolors since I was a toddler. I love this painting because the colors are so vibrant and there are lots of special details involved in it.

My name is Alex and I love drawing, working with clay and leatherwork. The reason why I drew this piece is because I wanted to challenge myself by drawing the ocean and a submarine. I have been doing this art class on Outschool for a year, and it's helped me with depth, white and black coloring and letting me create my artistic ideas. This piece makes me feel proud of my work and my progress.

I drew this horse during my Outschool drawing class. I love its flowers, Christmas hat, and the details in its face.

Hello!! My name is Elyssa, and I’ve been drawing before I can remember, but started getting more into art at about 9 years old. I love both led sketching and drawing with colored pencils, so I figured I’d combine the two! This drawing is a recreation of a drawing that I made a few years back. I love animals, and I really hope this drawing inspires people to take care of and protect the environment, as well as the creatures being affected by litter and deforestation every day. Thank you! :D

My name is Zayra. I have never gone camping before. So my dream is to go camping. This art makes me feel joyful.

I drew this artwork as a reminder of both downtown Charleston, SC & downtown Augusta, GA. Downtown Charleston has the cobblestone streets and a candy store by the market I would go to buy candy from with my family. The dress I drew in the window reminds me of an alteration shop in downtown Augusta I once visited and saw a beautiful dress in the window of the store. Both places make me feel nice and sweet because I've had great experiences at those places and loved putting them into my artwork.

Mia is 6 years old and she loves giraffes. There is a painting that hangs in our dining room of a colorful giraffe and Mia loves to paint it with watercolor.

Hello! My name's Sybil, and I make a bunch of OCs when I'm bored! I played a game called Cookie Run: Kingdom, and there were two new costumes that were in the game which was a playwright and actor. I got inspired by it, and drew some costumes for my two OCs - Pluvia and Tempestade (Tempestade is male). I always got a feeling of calmness and solemness when i look at the art. It does feel relaxing, like a calm dance.

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.

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!

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

I am homeschooler who loves art and dogs. I started drawing with how to draw books, then added some Outschool art classes to refine my skills. I love drawing pictures of animals but my current focus is dogs. My favorite parts to focus on are the eyes and the snouts. If I can get the eyes right, it gives the portrait the complete personality and really brings life to the dogs on paper.

My name is Wolf and for the last few months I’ve been learning how to draw more realism art. When I was able to capture the style that I enjoyed, I transferred it digitally. This piece represents my growth as an artist. A long time ago, if you asked me to draw something realistic, I would have said no. Now I challenge myself and embrace new styles.

This piece is my mascot that’s why it inspires me, thanks \(^v^)/ HuvJuv H. HuvJuv is the full name guess what the H. Middle name stands for (HuvJuv) H&J for short :^D

Hi, my name is Kinsey. I like watercolor because I can express myself. What inspired my painting was I wanted to do something tropical and with flowers. This painting makes me feel happy and like I am walking through a rainforest. Someday I would like to hike through a rainforest.

Hi, I'm Matthew. I like gaming, art, music, collecting things, and metal detecting. I made this piece because I was going through an odd period where my dreams were extremely vivid and colorful, but at the end would become almost distant and would fade to white before ending, almost is if they were trying to tell me, "This isn't real" before fading away. This piece reminds me of those times and makes me feel oddly satisfied and wildly confused with this strange period of bizarre dreams.

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

My name is Sal. In my free time I like to code on scratch and play ROBLOX. I was inspired by a racing game. This piece makes me feel excited.

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 painting represents my memories of summer holidays spent in Poland at my grandma’s countryside home. Every summer I would visit her, and the landscape around the village was full of golden fields and large round hay bales after the harvest. I remember the warm sun, the smell of fresh grass and straw, and the peaceful feeling of being surrounded by nature, which contrasted so much with what I am used to living in New York City.

Hi my name is Everley and this is my self portrait. I painted it because I wanted to create something that inspires other people. Self portraits are special pieces to create and I want people to know how beautiful they are, even if they’re in a place they normally aren’t. My portrait takes place in the mountains, which is one of my favorite places to visit.

“I enjoy drawing anime because it inspires my imagination. I like creating characters with strong expressions and unique designs. Anime shows like Naruto inspire me to practice drawing and improve my skills. When I draw, I feel creative and excited because I can bring my ideas to life through art.”

I LOVE doing art! I made a picture to inspire others for a more peaceful world. I love animals and nature, so that is what inspired me. This picture makes me feel proud and like I can make the world a better place! I hope you get inspired too! Thank You for taking your time to look at my art and read about it!

This piece shows that anyone and anything can be art and to always be your self. I hope that everyone that sees this piece will be deeply moved and inspired. -NO COPYING-

Hi, my name is Kellan

I really like to compose music, which is one of the things that inspired me for this piece. I tried to emulate pixel art, which is also something I used to do quite frequently. I actually like how this one turned out, so I thought I should submit it.

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.

My dog and my cousin's dog inspired me because my cousin's had to give up their dog for adoption. My dog is brave because she doesn't see her sister any more.

My name is Colton and this piece was inspired by my brother’s and my love of video games. This makes me feel happy and nostalgic.

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.

This piece is inspired by my parents. The tree represents growth, strength, and the ability to adapt to stress. The dove symbolizes peace. This work represents how i look at the world, instead of being angry at little things, it allows me to change my ways and Look at the things for the better.ultimately showing that even if you struggle, you can pick it right back up. Showing how it represents my development in my skills, not just as an artist but as a person.

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.

My art was inspired by my class.

This was my first render

My name is Parker (they/them)! I'm an artist who loves cats! Here is some artwork of my "Warriors" original character, named Snapnose (left). This is the kitty I draw the most! He takes after my real life cat, Catisse (right). For Snapnose, I went for a more realistic style, with larger eyes and almost human-ish eyebrows. For Catisse, I went less sketchy and more cat-like. The somewhat realistic style is very good for my art, and I am very proud of it. Hope you enjoy it!

Hello, I’m Hayden! I love to read, play sports, write, draw dragons, etc. I’ve been doing art class with Ms. April Taylor for a year, and before that, I have been taking other Outschool art classes. If I’m being honest, the inspiration for my painting came from a watercolor class with Ms. April Taylor. It made me feel extremely happy because of the outcome, since water color isn’t my strong suit. I owe my teacher a huge, clap clap clap and thanks! Thank you so much for your time! -Hayden

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. 🙂

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.

The inspiration for my artwork is space. Space has always inspired me so when I saw the category for the competition I knew that I had to do space. My artwork makes me happy and I am proud of it.

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 love moods and colors. I wanted to make something beautiful, warm and rich. I hope it makes you feel like time stopped a bit just for you!

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.

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 have been drawing Aimi since 2025. There’s not much lore to her - she is a 16 year old girl who likes cutecore. I do drawing and digital art and enjoy making OCs.

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.

I was inspired in my art class. Using oil pastels and watercolor, I chose to create a stag because they look strong and majestic. I enjoy experimenting with color.

I like to draw interesting creatures.

I am a girl with six siblings (five are half). My stuffies have always been my imaginary friends with their own personalities. They could talk to me (not in real life). We even played school. This bunny was always happy. When I felt sad, I would talk to this bunny and feel better. When I saw this bunny on my desk, I decided to draw it. Looking at this drawing I feel proud and confident of my artwork.

I did a collage out of magazines!

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.

I've liked drawing for as long as I can remember. My favorite drawing style is with pencils, and I love drawing animals. I really like this drawing; I think it turned out to be a really cute dragon.

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

It makes me feel creative and enhance my personality.. thank you all for wonderful platform to showcase my talent

Hi, my name is Helen. I love drawing and painting because they make me feel happy. My artwork, “A Beautiful Morning at My School,” is inspired by a Minecraft theme. It shows the happy memories I have at school. It is a bright spring morning with the sun shining in a clear blue sky. School buses and cars are busy as they drop off children. The children are wearing their uniforms and look excited because they love coming to school to learn, play, and be with their friends.

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 love painting and making pictures of where we Iive. My class assignment was to paint a desert scene, but I just really love how green it is around my home. Our house faces where the sunsets every day and I am always in awe of how beautiful the sunsets are.

Hi, I'm Samantha! My art piece was inspired by mindfulness and self-reflection. I chose the words aspiring, peace, hope, love, passion and reflection because they inspire and resonate with me. I love art because it is a beautiful way to express yourself and inspires hope.

I was inspired by my love of foxes. I saw a picture of a painting of a fox at a museum and it inspired me to try drawing one myself. This painting makes me feel calm

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.

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.

Hi my name is Shareef. I really love to draw because I get to change whatever I want, however I want. My brother was drawing an axe and that inspired me to draw one. And I’m proud of my drawing.

i got inspiration from a game i played with a flower character. This character’s name is Tulip! She is delivering flowers (which are also tulips) to one of her friends. I made the texture with pencil shavings and glue. I used stop motion animation for this!

Hi, I'm Lianna and I like to dance, play with my friends, go to the beach and I love to draw. My drawing is called "A beautiful world starts with you" because each person has the power and responsibility to make the world a better place. The big green tree symbolizes growth, strength, and a healthy environment. The sun, birds, butterflies, heart, and flowers all represent life, love, peace, and harmony in nature. The heart especially shows that we should care for the Earth with love.

I love being a Girl Scout, baking/cooking, making friends, nature and drawing. What inspired me to sketch this was the beauty of human life and how it’s important to have nature on your shoulders and the treasures it brings to our lives. When I was looking through photographs of people and decided to work my first hyperrealism piece this one made me feel warmth and happiness within my soul. It reminds me of nature and autumn, like I am walking through an Aspen forest.

Ms. Amy inspires us to draw landmarks from all over the world. This week we sketched the Alhambra gateway in Spain, in under 40 minutes. She teaches us techniques to be efficient and draw in our own style. This is my favorite after-school activity. I look forward to it every week!

I’m Zion and I called this art piece waves. I named it this because I surf and sometimes waves are like life. Sometimes they can be big and scary and sometimes they’re calm and light. Also making abstract art feels like I can express my emotions more than concrete art.

I've attached 4 pieces of art that my daughter created, two abstract paintings of colors and two animal pieces, one of a fish and the other of a panda.

My name is Hayley, I am twelve years old and I love my mom. Me and my mom love to travel, and draw, and bake I made this drawing for her because it reminds me of watching the sunrise every morning, and all of our plane trips everywhere I hope (wink wink) you like my art! Thank 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:).

I like horses and sailing. It started off as the portrait of my house and then evolved to a beach scene.

I have always been fascinated by dinosaurs and could never wrap my mind around the fact that these creatures were Earth's first inhabitants. Although they are gone now, their presence is something recognized by all, even 65 million years later. As such, my picture shows a T-rex, the epitome of the dinosaurs. It captures the bold and fierce nature this creature once had, roaming through the jungle with an intimidating aura. This drawing reminds me to always be confident, no matter the challenge.

my name is Elisha and I like science. I was inspired by my love of science and it makes me feel happy and proud of what I've done

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.

It’s art style is based of the old micky mouse cartoons but what happens in the animation is more loony tunes hope you enjoy it ;D

Hello. my name is Gracie Austin and I am 15 years old. My piece pictures a dark abyss that would seem to go on forever, but, in that darkness there is a beautiful sunset, something you would only be able to see it if you took the chance to look over the edge of that abyss. In my picture I used the dove to symbolize the hope/peace within the abyss as its wings reflect the sunset. I was inspired to do this piece because even in dark times there is always hope, if you look close enough. -Thank you.

I'm Ella-Gayle. I love to read, and I especially enjoy drawing. I have been drawing my whole life. I do digital art as well. My favorite Outschool classes are 'Draw Every Day' with Mr. Dustin and 'Procreate Studio' with Ms. Uli. I call this drawing "Meg", and it was inspired by Disney Princesses. It makes me feel like I am a Disney Character Designer. When I grow up, I want to be a famous artist.

I really like drawing and listening to music, so I wanted to make a picture that shows both at the same time. I got the idea because sometimes when I’m outside, the wind and the trees sound like a song, and it makes me feel calm and happy. It’s like nature is making its own music. I also see butterflies and birds in my backyard and all the flowers blooming. I hope when people see it, they feel calm too and maybe think about the sounds around them in a new way.
