Dear young artists around the world, followers, partners and friends!
We are happy to announce and show the world how children all over the planet experienced the Corona-time. SEE GALLERY BELOW OF THE TOP-100.
Together we collected more than 5500 pieces of art: Kids from 64 countries submitted their pictures, the youngest one was not even 2 years old. We are overwhelmed by this response and by the high quality of the entries! We’ve spent quite some time to view all the entries and had a hard time to put together a selection of 100 pictures that we hereby share with you – and the world. Please note! We are not presenting the BEST pieces of art – every picture is unique and should be shown to the world. We tried to create a wide selection that represents the variety of themes, of the different countries and ages of the children. SCROLL DOWN TO THE BOTTOM FOR FACTSHEET AND MORE INFO:
