Nominate your favourite artwork here (May/June 2026)

Best of Krita-Artists

This is where members nominate their favourite artwork followed by a poll to determine which ones will land on the forum’s featured artwork banner.

How it works

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 2026-06-11T18:00:00Z.

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 automatically entered into the Best of Krita-Artists 2026 competition at the end of the year.

What is Best of Krita-Artists – 2026?

In January 2027, we will publish a poll containing all the winning entries from the previous year. K-A member voting will determine the top ten and these finalists will be awarded a “Best of Krita-Artists – 2026” badge. In case you missed it, here are the results from last years’ winning entries: Best of K-A 2025

How to Submit a Nomination for Monthly Featured Artwork

Tag the artist using their @ name, insert a link to the full-size image (do not copy/paste image) and then add a link to the original post. You may want to open 2 tabs in your browser as you will need to refer to the original post twice.

Detailed Posting Instructions (click to open)
  • Open a new reply in this thread and type the @ name of the artist you are nominating.
  • Go to the artist’s post and click on the image. When the image appears on your screen, right click and save the image link (image address).
  • Return to the nomination post and press hyperlink or ctrl+k. Paste the URL (optional title is not necessary). Once the link markdown is inserted into the post, move your cursor to the beginning of the link and add a single ! (exclamation mark) before the [ (the opening square bracket) of the link. It will look something like this:
    ![optionaltitle](url)
  • Return to the artist’s post and copy the URL.
  • Paste this URL into your nomination post.

NOTE: the link and markdown characters must be on a line without any other characters.

  • Save/publish the post.

Guidelines

Forum members may make up to five nominations per month.
You may not nominate your own work.
All artwork published in the Artwork:Finished Artwork category is eligible. The only exception is artwork that has already been featured (look for the “featured” tag next to the post title).

The featured artwork nomination process is brought to you by Krita-Artists’ Admins and Moderators. We welcome feedback and suggestions. To submit feedback, please click here and add your thoughts.
