„Beautiful like flowers
…is the land….“
Theme: Natural elements
Get your inspiration from natural elements as water, sun, snow, fire, air,
land (soil, earth), light, darkness. Think of a subject. You can depict
your own idea or draw from any of the following topics:
- your own experience (What I met under water while I was diving; What
I am able to make with snow; A trip or a story in which the weather
played an important role; I split the air while downhill skiing; How I
imagine the world in a volcano core; Under the microscope – the
world in a water drop; How we made a campfire; The wind pollinates
plants…)
- a folk song, fairy tale or folk saying about water, the sun, gloom,
weather (e.g. Snow White; Water of life and water of death; The fairy
tale characters –The Sunshade, Sunfish and Windmill; About the
cockerel and little hen; The song “It raining, it’s pouring...The natural
little spring in the vast field; A blue-eyed girl…; St. Medard’s Day - 40
days of rain
- what explorers, conquerors experienced (D. Livingstone explores
Victoria Falls; Prehistoric Landek in Ostrava – the first use of fire in
the world; Magellan’s fight with the ocean when sailing around the
world; H. Barth explores the Sahara Desert; G. Grey discovers
mysterious Aborigine paintings under the Australian sun; Ch. Darwin
met barbarians in Tierra del Fuego; Brave aeronauts in balloons and
airships; Amundsen – conqueror of the South Pole; How Eskimos
live; Leonardo de Vinci thinks about how men could fly; A story I’ve
read – J. Verne…)
All the works of art made by drawing and graphic techniques or
by their combination will be admitted to the competition.

drypoint, lithography, linocut etc. We will exclude only those

possessions of organizers.
