Final Featured Artist

Blue Canvas

So here at last is my final Featured Artist post. Over the last 12 months I’ve enjoyed perusing the wide variety of artwork that has been uploaded to the Artful Kids Flickr Group, and choosing which artist to feature.  I’ve tended to choose artworks which seem to have most input from the child themselves, and [...]

September Featured Artist

Joy's Puffin

It’s time for my monthly Featured Artist again, and this time I have chosen an artist who I have in fact featured before, (though not as a prize winner) and whose artwork is regularly contributed to the Artful Kids Flickr Group.  The artist is Treaclezoo’s daughter Joy, who seems to be a keen artist.  Apparently [...]

July Featured Artist

Prince Charming

This month’s Featured Artist is a picture of Prince Charming by Eve, aged 3 1/2 (the writing was added by Daddy) which was contributed by Niffabird.  According to Eve, Prince Charming has red lipstick and jewels in his hair (apparently Prince Charming likes lipstick).  Make of that what you will! Eve is the first of [...]

June Featured Artist

Slightly misleading title, as there isn’t in fact a Featured Artist this month as nobody submitted one    or maybe it’s just that no-one had a masterpiece that they wanted to share, or perhaps the young artists out there are just shy.  So this month, I am including a slide show of the artwork that’s [...]

The Featured Artist for this month, is also the Artful Kids Competition winner.  Fiona Reeves submitted this picture by her 5 year old daughter Erin, which I felt was perfect for styling.  Watch this space in a few days time to see her prize – a finished canvas of styled artwork created from the image.

It’s by her eldest daughter Charlotte.  The picture is described as follows: From top left clockwise: ‘Papa Nash in his pants, the world, a face, dots, a car in storm clouds, Wayne from Higgley Town Heroes wearing [...]

March Featured Artist

This month’s Featured Artist has been contributed by Mollimoo, and is by her daughter, aged 3.  The intriguing title of this one is ‘Me riding an Elephant Snake!’ I think it’s quite accomplished for a 3 year old. The monthly Featured Artist is selected from images uploaded to the Artful Kids Flickr Group. If anyone [...]

February Featured Artist

>   February’s Featured Artist has been contributed by Treaclezoo, and was drawn by her daugher Joy when she was 4 years old – it just goes to show that even those most ephemeral of drawings, created on a ‘megasketcher’ can be immortalized with a camera.  I can see why this one was recorded for [...]

First Featured Artist of 2010

Here is my first Featured Artist of 2010. Here is my first Featured Artwork of 2010.  It was submitted to the Artful Kids Flickr Group by mammydalby whose daughter Lexie is the artist.  It’s a little different to the work I have featured so far, and with all the pink blossom on the tree, reminds [...]

Featured Artist with a Seasonal Theme

> My second Featured Artist has been chosen with a seasonal theme.  This contribution was made by HotdogandMe, and is the work of her 5 year old daughter.  It shows Santa in his sleigh in a starry sky, a Christmas tree, snowman, and house with people.  I love this picture, and it reminds me of [...]
