Eva, This is so well done! And clay can be tricky. I am looking forward to your changemakers presentation. love, Mom

Hi Eva – What a clever item to make a sculpture of! And it’s pink and has a ribbon which is perfect. Good creativity! Love, Grandma

Eva, I meant to ask you last weekend for more info about this piece. Was there a technique or theme you were developing?

Eva, This is fun! I can't wait to hear more about it! love, Mom

Eva, I love the detail and movement you've captured! love, Mom

You capture the dolphin's curved profile while jumping out of the water perfectly, Eva, and also so with the broken line the dolphin's breaking through the water. Well done.

Hi Eva – I like the sense of motion you have created. The dolphin looks like it is leaping out of the water and has a beautiful arched body. Good job. Love, Grandma

I see and feel a contrast between fluid curves and sharp zigzags I like the curves and that there are more of them.

Hi Eva – It looks like you had fun creating this. I like all your different designs and colors and the way you have created balance. It is not easy to repeat designs tucked into each other closely but you have done it. Good work. Love, Grandma

Eva, This piece feels very playful! Was it done in response to a prompt or just for fun? love, Mom

Your painting reminds me that the color spectrum is a fascinating thing to think about and witness. Color variations are amazing aren't they. You artfully show color changing along the spectrum. It's pleasing to the eye. I'm not sure why, but I find myself moving from the blue bottom to the top red, not from top to bottom.

Eva, One of my favorite type of yarns is a gradient dye that slowly transitions colors so you can't quite tell where blue becomes purple. This is very soothing to look at. love, Mom

Eva, This is such a dynamic piece! I love all the shades and sizes, and how the background dots draw your eye to the center. love, Mom

Hi Eva – I like the way you blended these colors to allow all the different shades to emerge. It reminds me of the colors of a darkening sky at sunset. Love, Grandma

Eva, I love the detail and precision that is emerging in your art. And I recognize these gymnastics posters! love, Mom

Quite creative, Eva, and your use of three dimensional perspective is excellent. Well done

I'm curious what inspired this sculpture, Eva. I'm also impressed with the idea you came up with for the fountain.

Hi Eva – What fun the little riders are having! I’m impressed by the way you created this 3-dimensional artwork, especially the addition of the fountain. Love, Grandma

Eva, This is such a fun piece and I totally got that it was the log flume! I love that you created a summer memory in art class. love, Mom

Eva, your piece reminds me of finely stitched needlepoint given the quality of detail and precision. I also like the color scheme.

Eva, Your self portrait is definitely you! I see the shirt, high ponytail, and earrings you love. And I think you did a great job capturing your facial features. love, Mom

Eva, This looks like the samplers we made while learning embroidery. I enjoy all the different patterns you tried out. love, Mom

Wow, Eva! The detail in your mandala is impressive. I'm also intrigued by the many shapes you incorporated in each layer. love, Mom

Hi Eva – I think that Mandalas are fascinating because of the concentricness of them and yours is beautiful. I have read about creating them with crochet stitches. I like all the many patterns you chose to create yours. Love, Grandma

Eva, I really like all of these patterns and the way you used different colors to differentiate them. love, Mom

Color and texture! I'm guessing that you did one block and then found freedom in choosing another color and another design pattern and then moved on to the third and fourth etc. I bet it was fun.

Hi Eva – I like all the different patterns and colors you have included in this artwork. Are these all rubbings? I am looking forward to your telling more about the technique. Good job. Love, Grandma

Love the color. I'm curious if the color used at the center of each determined in any way the other colors.

Eva, I love this color study using different shapes. It was especially fun when it came home and was so large! love, Mom

Hi Eva – I am interested in what you were studying that helped you create this artwork. These look like beautiful mosaics that display these combinations of colors. Are these colors opposites on the color wheel? Very nice. Love, Grandma

Eva, This is so pretty and I really enjoyed you showing me and explaining why you started with a triangle in the center. love, Mom

Eva, This is really pretty and I love the layered waves and soft dots. Mom

Eva, does the drawing have a name or was this an exercise in color and brush stroke?

Hi Eva – This artwork makes me think of a seahorse and ocean waves. I like the careful selection of your colors and the precise repetition of your lines. Good creating. Love, Grandma

Wow, Eva! There is so much wonderful detail in this self portrait. You've really mastered drawing a braid. love, Mom

Hi Eva – I am impressed by this portrait. The detail in the braid is so well-drawn and the shading on the face and clothing and background makes me feel like this is so life-like and this person is staring back at me. Is it a self-portrait? Well done. Love, Grandma

Eva, I really like this painting. Is it all paint? I know you get to use so many materials. I love the happy flower that looks small next to the cactus. love, Mom

Eva, I love the theme of this playground and how you thought to use various materials. It would be fun to see it full size! love, Mom

Wow, Eva! You've captured so much movement in this drawing! love, Mom

Hi Eva – You have drawn an amazing picture and captured such a sense of movement and grace. I think drawing people is hard. Well done! Love, Grandma

Eva, I really like your jellyfish! There are so many different kinds of lines in your pictures, squiggly lines for the jellyfish and then straight ones creating a pattern on its body. I find my eyes drawn to the bottom where you have skinny lines and black circles setting apart the geometric shapes above. love, Mom

Hi Eva – You did such a good job following the the suggestions for this artwork. It must have been interesting to learn about the artists and their techniques. Good job. Love,

Eva! I love this!!! It’s beautiful! The colors, all the detail - it’s gorgeous!!!

Eva, this is such an impressive piece of artwork! I love all of the details - like the tree's shadows - and the layers you create. I also love the soft and cheerful colors you've chosen.

Eva, This is so beautiful! I love the blues and purples of the sky, and am so impressed by the shadows of your trees. I especially like the bright orange bird adding color to this wintery scene. love, Mom

Hi Eva – I looked closely at this amazing picture to see the variety of mediums you used — crayon, watercolor, and collage are what I noticed and I think you may have used some other techniques. I love the colors of the sky and how the stars reveal themselves. The birch trees stand tall and have a depth in this artwork because you painted their shadows on the snow. And the birds pop and add more depth because they are collage. Good job. Love, Grandma

Eva, You did an excellent job capturing the components of this assignment - overlapping with the fruit, then light and shadow around your bowl with the watercolor. Impressive! love, Mom

That's a very nice still-life, Eva! I bet you had fun discovering what the crayons and watercolors do when you use them together. Nice work!

What a gorgeous painting, Eva! I love the deep, saturated colors of the trees!

Hi Eva – You did such a good job creating this still life. I think they are hard to do. I especially like the the way the black crayon and watercolors work together to make this painting. It looks like you had fun. Love, Grandma

Eva, This artwork is so beautiful! I was really curious how you were able to create the reflection with different backgrounds and after reading Mrs. Martinez's note realized this was a many step painting. The colors you chose are so deep and really make me think of fall. love, Mom

Eva, I love the colors you chose for your trees. They look just like the ones I see when I drive down the road. Very beautiful!

Hi Eva– This fall reflections artwork you created is beautiful. You captured all the amazing colors leaves turn in the fall. And what fun it must have been to create the symmetry. It makes me wish I had noticed trees turning colors along the edge of a lake or pond more often. Good job. Love, Grandma

Very colorative...I am impressed how you lined up the trees...you learned the concept well....love you l lots

What a great assignment to give students, and I love what you came up with, Eva, to make your oops beautiful!

Eva, I love that you incorporated a rainbow into a school artwork. And I think you used the hole in your paper cleverly. It reminds me of the scenes we stood behind for pictures after mini golf. love, Mom

Hi Eva – What an interesting project turning an oops into something beautiful. Your rainbow certainly is beautiful. Did you have fun using the deep, rich colors in this artwork? Good job. Love, Grandma

This painting has such great energy, Eva! And it's neat that you were learning about the art of Alexander Calder. I always love checking out the mobiles he made when we see them in museums.

Eva, it would be fun to watch you paint and ask you questions along the way about what you're doing exactly and why.

Eva, I love the variety of shapes you included and how your black lines vary in width. I read Mrs. Martinez's description of the assignment and it sounded like a really fun, multi-step project. love, Mom

Hi Eva – This abstract artwork you created has so much energy. It looks like you had fun painting the shapes and the black lines. Good job. Love, Grandma

Eva, I love the way you have created this bouquet with several mediums - the detail with the black crayon and the color painted on in bright splashes. It looks very sophisticated! love, Mom

Hi Eva - What a beautiful vase of flowers! Did you use crayons and watercolors to create this artwork? I really like it especially the deep blue and red colors you chose and the way I can see the stems and leaves through the glass vase. Good job. Love, Grandma
-- Wendy

What a cool picture, Eva! I feel like I'm getting a secret view into the lives of an ant and a butterfly. And I love the colors in the background - so pretty!
-- Auntie Sarah

Eva, I am intrigued by the layers in this project. The background makes me think of sunset, and the scale of the grass shows just how small an ant is. Nice job! love, Mom
-- Eliza

Hi Eva - What a fun picture! I love all the layers you created from the beautiful sky to the grasses that provide a wonderful backdrop for your bugs. It looks like your bugs are in a happy place. Good job. Love, Grandma
-- Wendy

Eva I love the picture of you. You are always smiling and drew with great detail. Besides the smile, I love your long eyelashes.
-- Grammy Janet

Eva, I'm so impressed with how you connected each of your colors so neatly. I saw a rainbow yesterday at my track meet, and this one is just as beautiful!
-- Auntie Anna

Eva, I love how happy you look in your self-portrait. You captured your bright beautiful eyes and your long eyelashes so well! xoxo!
-- Auntie Anna

Hi Eva- I like your rainbow sculpture and the way you folded it in on itself. It looks like it’s sitting on clouds and has a star in the middle. I hope you had fun creating this. Love, Grandma
-- Wendy

Eva, Wow! This is such an accurate and detailed self-portrait! I bet I would have picked it as you if it was hanging up at school :) I also like the patterned background you created. love, Mom
-- Eliza

Eva, What fun to see the rainbow you told me about! I like that you made clouds. Is it shaped like a heart? love, Mom
-- Eliza

This is so neat, Eva! What beautiful rainbow - it's so cheerful and looks like you built it very carefully. It's lovely!
-- Auntie Sarah

What a great self-portrait, Eva! I love your smile!!!
-- Auntie Sarah

Eva, I love this drawing! It reminds me of watching the sun rise on Cape Cod. I think the way you used only primary colors is very effective and eye catching. love, Mom
-- Eliza

Eva, What a beautiful picture! I love how all of the lines draw your attention to the bright red. You use such bold colors. Love you!
-- Auntie Anna

Hi Eva, This looks like sunrise on the ocean to me with all those waves. I like the way you used the primary colors with the red sun in the middle and the sunbeams and water all around it. Good job. Love, Grandma
-- Wendy

Eva, I look forward to when your bug comes home since I missed seeing it glowing at Art Night. It's much prettier than the crabs we saw in Barbados! love, Mom
-- Eliza

Eva, we love the colors you chose for your bug! And we were curious how you got your pipe cleaners to stay? xoxo!
-- Auntie Anna

Hi Eva, This certainly is a colorful bug and you painted it your favorite colors too! It looks like you had fun creating this. Good job. Love, Grandma

Eva - What beautiful colors you've used! I especially love the hidden surprises in your background!
-- Auntie Anna

Eva, I appreciate how many colors you've used and how neatly you've filled in each square. This reminds me of a building that went up across from my last apartment in New York - the windows were varying shades of blue and green. This is prettier! love, Mom
-- Eliza

Hi Eva- Just imagine if our cities were as colorful as this one you created. What fun! Good job. Love, Grandma
-- Grandma Wendy

Cool dress - I like the stripes!
-- Auntie Sarah

This is such a pretty winter scene! It looks like it could be the Northern Lights! Well done, Eva!
-- Auntie Sarah

I love your city, Eva - so colorful! Looks like a great place to live!
-- Auntie Sarah

Eva, What a beautiful painting! Tate and I love how cheerful your colors are. And we think the trees look like they are dancing. xo.
-- Auntie Anna

Eva, This is a beautiful snowscape! I love the non-traditional background colors you chose, while following the assignment instructions for creating your print. I especially like that the snow is your fingerprints. love, Mom

Very colorful, very festive!
-- Grandpa

Hi Eva, I love the colors you chose to be the background for your painting and the way you followed directions for the techniques you used to create your picture. The trees and snow really POP from the colors. It looks like you had fun creating this artwork. Love,
-- Grandma

Eva, I love this portrait - it’s looks like your subject is dancing. Is it you? I’m impressed by how well you followed the direction to add a horizon line. love, Mom
-- Eliza

Eva, I really like the soft colors you chose to color your tangram, and the way you filled in the background.. The shape makes me think of something flying - I’m curious to hear about your design process. love, Mom
-- Eliza

Hi Eva- What fun this self portrait is. You have a big smile and your hair in ponytails and you look like you have a lot of energy. Good job. Love,
-- Grandma

Eva, I'm curious what kind of paint you are using. Some kind of water color paint or is it something else?
-- Grandpa

Great color combinations, Eva! And I like your variations of dots, squiggles and straight lines - it looks like this was lots of fun to paint!
-- Auntie Sarah

Wow, so many different things that can be done with lines. Thank you for sharing, Eva!
-- Uncle Oliver

Hi Eva, I’m so excited to see your artwork. This painting has so much energy and the colors are vibrant and look so good together. It looks like you had fun creating it. Well done! Love,
-- Grandma

Eva, I love this painting! I especially like how you worked only with tones of blue and red. You do so many fun art pieces at home that I imagine you must enjoy the new materials you get to try in Ms. Martinez's class. love, Mom
