＜Artwork Introduction＞

◆Artist: Erik Perez

<Award for the Cute, Soft Art-chan> Thank you for the adorable depiction of Art-chan! The hat’s expression is a nice touch that contributes to such a cosy look.

◆Artist: Subbibara

<Award for "It's Okay If It's a Cat"> Art-chan's fruit mountain ruined by a cat! The expression of "Oh no, I almost reached the watermelon!" is so adorable.

◆Artist: Miyaji

<Award for the Wonderful, Determined Gaze> Thank you for the artwork featuring Art-chan with a composition and expression that truly embodies a painter! The squinting eye and the paint on the face conveys her strong sense of determination when honing her craft. The mountain in the foreground is also stacked with an impressively precarious balance.

◆Artist: Watercolor Kirby

Art-chan with a beaming smile! Are those stacked fruits in the background kiwano? She looks happy surrounded by her favourite fruits.

◆Artist : Juh

<Give me back my fruit! Award> A lot of fruit has been stolen!? Thank you for this illustration! It looks like a scene from a manga!

Thank you for submitting numerous artworks overflowing with love for Art-chan!

We look forward to your continued support for "Fruit Mountain"!
