The annual competition, held by the fai since 1986, saw entries from 24 countries, and this year artists from Belarus were particularly successful, winning first place in each of the three age categories: Junior (6-9 years old); Intermediate (10-13); and Senior (14-17). It was also the first year that artists from a non-fai member country have entered the competition: the fai was delighted to accept entrants from Sri Lanka. Taking inspiration from both nature and technology, this year’s gifted young artists let their imaginations soar into the sky, using watercolor, pencil, acrylics and ink to commit their daydreams to paper. The 2019 winners – each of whom has been awarded with a fai Young Artists medal and a diploma – were Belarusians Marina Shyshonak (Junior), whose technically skilled composition impressed the judges; Darya Kavaliova (Intermediate), whose simple theme was extremely well-executed; and Yanina Rakova (Senior), who incorporated both ancient and ultra-modern technology to illustrate her ‘dream to fly.’ To take part, fai Member countries must first organize either a national competition or another process of selection. The winning paintings from each country are then submitted to the fai International Jury.
