Competition Results
I can now, somewhat belatedly, announce the winner of the competition I held over Christmas for the most popular picture added to the Artful Kids Flickr Group over the first 12 months of it’s existence, as voted for by readers. And the winner is: Drum roll….opens gold envelope: Hotdogandme whose daughter created this Christmas picture [...]
Invitation to View….
Following on from my last post, I have put together an exhibition or Gallery of Icy Artwork on Flickr to provide further inspiration, and readers of Artful Adventures are exclusively invited to a ‘private’ view for it’s official opening. There are some wonderful creations out there which people all over the world have created, so [...]
Final Featured Artist
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 [...]
August Featured Artist
I was hoping to have another prize-winning featured artist for August, but unfortunately no-one uploaded any artwork this month:( So instead I am featuring the artwork of my younger son, which because he is younger and less prolific, and indeed a less confident artist than my elder son, doesn’t have his work showcased that often.

May Featured Artist & Competition Winner
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. [...]
New Artful Kids Flickr Group

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 [...]
First Featured Artist
Thank you to those of you who have joined and uploaded photos of your children’s artwork to the Artful Kids Flickr group. This week I am introducing the first of my featured artists – hopefully the first of many, but I need more group members to upload photos if this is going to be anything [...]
