Ah, summer! It’s time for sunshine, beaches, and thinking about Christmas. Yup, you read that right! This summer, we were all about Christmas…the Christmas in July contest, that is!
We teamed up with FPAC and challenged you to create a piece of art that captures the beauty of trees and forests. Animals were drawn, paint was splattered, trees were coloured, and now prizes have been awarded! Check out the winners of the 2022 Christmas in July contest!
First place: Nevaeh!
I like this type of forest because it reminded me of Gibson hill. Gibson hill is a walking trail with a huge forest. The cabin reminded me of someone’s cabin they built in the middle of the forest. The view is amazing.

Congratulations Nevaeh! Your artwork is being featured on FPAC’s 2022 holiday card!
Second and third place: Edwin and Mariam
We did a forest collage. First we painted our background with water colours, then we painted bubble wrap to stamp on some snow. We glued on cotton balls for some snowy hills and added paper trees and glittery sticks. Finally for a more holiday feel we added presents underneath a tree and a star for the top. Our picture is entitled “ever green, ever magical”.

My artwork is a starry night sky with a snow blanketed forest with snow peaked mountains. In the center, there’s a pine tree where lights are decorated. There are two gift boxes beside the tree, one with the Earth Rangers logo, and the other the FPAC logo.

We got over 150 amazing submissions so we couldn’t just show off the top three. Here are some other masterpieces that were sent in.
A big round of applause to these amazingly talented Earth Rangers!
