The great outdoors: share your landscapes now

Update: we have published a gallery with a selection of your landscape artworks. You can view it here.

Mother Earth’s surface has been oft portrayed in art, from medieval Chinese paintings to Tracey Emin, via the impressionists and Renaissance masters. Landscapes are one of art’s main themes – and one we haven’t tackled yet in Share Your Art. This month, send us yours.

As with all of our projects, you can interpret the theme any way you like, and use any materials, from pen and ink to needlework or film. If you’d prefer to discuss your favourite landscape artworks, please do so in the comment thread – where we’d also love your suggestions for future Share Your Art themes. Thanks to Stephen Irwin for this month’s suggestion.

And have you heard about our upcoming exhibition in London? Click here for everything you need to know. It is important to note that we won’t accept more than three submissions per user for each assignment.

This project is open to everyone, but there are a few guidelines you need to follow if you’d like to submit your artwork:

How to share your artwork

Share an image of your artwork via GuardianWitness, by clicking the blue “contribute” button on this page, or via the Android or iPhone app. If you don’t have a Guardian profile, you’ll need to sign up. Then, find the Share Your Art assignment and follow the instructions to share your image. If you have any problems, email us at userhelp@theguardian.com.

We’ll feature some of our favourite submissions at theguardian.com/artanddesign and on Facebook. By sending us your pictures you: a) acknowledge that you have created the pictures or have permission to do so; and b) grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, free licence to publish your pictures as described. Copyright resides with you and you may reuse your pictures however you wish. Read our full terms and conditions here.

Don’t worry if they don’t appear straight away – everything has to be approved before it can be “hung” in our online gallery. Tell us in the comments if there are any improvements we could make to the series.

Here are some of the reader contributions so far :
