His favorite part of the artwork "that I made this drill on the side and spikes that I made. I liked how I made the different bumps". His inspiration "that I made it up and until we drew the hand and then I got more ideas". He would change "he wouldn't change a thing!" Concepts learned "I was learning how to draw and when Ms. Nutter showed it to me I loved it" He was surprised by "that I liked the zombie I drew in the corner and that I like the spikes and the zombie is snowboarding". What he did to create this artwork "I kept thinking and um it took me awhile and then I just started drawing".

His favorite part of the artwork "I like how I made the tail and the eyes and um and I really wanted to add feet". His inspiration "When it came out of the kiln and it was shiny and I like how Ms. Nutter showed me". He would change "some colors like um I would switch and middle green for the blue on the tail". The concepts learned "the different types of cats and the paper cat that we did that one time". What surprised him "that it I liked the way it looked when it got out of the kiln and I liked the kiln and I saw it". To create this artwork "first we started out with a paper cat and then we started ripping pieces off of it and we described how it looked". Love, Jeremy & Naester!~

Love the picture! And I love Grandma Jay, Gammie, Uncle Jeff, Uncle Dave, Poppoo, Auntie Ursula. Her favorite part of the artwork was "crayon and painting and making the hearts too". Her least favorit part was "crayons because she couldn't find the gold color". Her inspiration was "making the hearts and the painting". She would change "the hearts would be squares". Concepts learned "how to make drawing hearts, drawing a square and painting". Love , Ms. Pearl and Naester
