Each month, around the 15th, we’ll post a nominations thread. Krita-Artists members can make up to five submissions in each monthly thread. This nominations thread will be open for submissions until 2025-09-11T18:00:00Z.
Everyone is welcome to vote when the poll is published. The five images receiving the most votes will be inducted into the featured artwork row. Winning images will also be entered into the Best of Krita-Artists – 2025 competition at the end of the year.

I nominate @allenarak ‘s Secretary Bird Study. I really, really love animals studies, and when they’re well done like this, I have to show my appreciation.
First time nominating, so I hope I’m doing it right.
I nominate @Elixiah with the awe inspiring piece of Santa Elena Canyon. I’ve never heard of it, I have no idea where it is, but I now have to go there!
Thank you for this thoughtful gesture, Elixiah.That’s really kind of you to nominate my drawing. I honestly just made this as a personal experiment, so I don’t think it’s the best fit for the competition, but I’m truly grateful for the thought.
I nominate the work of our user @ArtAvenue from their topic Gingerberry - A WebComic Series, in my eyes this series of works deserves more views, and who knows perhaps a place among all the other featured works in the near future?
I like to nominate the work The joy of a coffee from our user @sognidigitali for its wonderful expression of emotion, maybe you like it enough to vote for it?
