You’re true trailblazers, proving that anything can be used to create amazing artworks!
The quality and creativity of your pieces were outstanding.

The winners were selected through a combination of evaluations by a panel of five jurors and public voting at the Pooseum. The judging criteria included creativity and originality, thematic interpretation, the quality of the painting (artistic skills demonstrated, composition, and level of detail), and the quality of the supplementary submission materials (written information and videos). All finalist paintings will be on display at the Pooseum until the end of 2026.
