Wonderful! Fantastic how with the different simple shapes and colors you made … Anthony Edwards! Paper cut art is very famous. Artist Henri Matisse was no longer able to paint so he made wonderful paper cuttings.

Number 9 on the field with the ball in your hands, in the stadium, and the big game? Let’s go!

I always love seeing all the wonderful pieces of artwork you've created. This is so colorful. Great job.

Soccer, football & hockey with Roxie? Clever.

I love the half-portrait of T-Wolves Anthony Edwards! This is how you learn to paint portraits. (p.s.- I hope Ant can play tonight …)

The “Drake Maye” half & half art is very interesting! Good work on arranging and then drawing your half. I think it would be interesting to cut a photo of person’s face in-half and draw the other half. That might also be a good way to learn to draw people’s faces. Great job!

Yes, the layers of paint and color of “Squeegee and Pastel” give the impression of distance in the background. The bold colors are up front. The colors fade and blend in the distance. Great work!

Wonderful collage! Although the artist points out the “smiley-face”, I particularly like the photo of (what I believe is) the Andromeda Galaxy aka M31. It is the nearest other galaxy to our Solar System at “only” 2.5 million light years away.

Excellent! Summertime green in front leading to tree line with multi-layered sunset sky highlighted by red-orange sun. Lovely.

Bobblehead #9 is very good! I like the holes at the eyeballs & nostrils, the arms, and the blue hat/beanie. I can't make out the insignia/writing on the front of the hat/beanie from the photo. I love the head! It looks a little like the Grinch that stole Christmas!

Excellent tiny art also showing importance of framing! Ultimate football victory with Lombardi Trophy and goalpost. Good timing on including victory of Artemis spacecraft heading out on Moon mission. Are the three stars Lien, Harrison and Claire?

I like the lino-block. My interpretation is "angry duck defends his pond in forest against beaver and beaver house". Someday I will find my woodcut-block prints of my parents' homes in Europe.

This is a very thought provoking piece of art. I am proud that you've captured a lot of positive experiences in your more column. And identified items in your less column that are not always the best choice or something to work on to improve. Again I'm so proud of you.

You are a great football player, Lien and your love for the game is so strong. Keep up the good work and have fun. Your artwork is a true statement of who you are. Go Edina Hornets!

Fantastic! Finger puppets....reminds me of director Tim Burton's movie "Edward Scissorhands" from 1990 starring Johnny Depp as the unfinished humanoid. Kind of a "Beauty and the Beast" story. ...but can you play the guitar, piano, and send a text message?

Fascinating! Lien32's still life reminds us of "Still Life with Watermelon, Pastries, Bread and Wine" by Luis Melendez at the Museo del Prado in Madrid, Spain, where our son was studying. Great work!

Perfect Summer art! At the Lake on the dock watching the Sun on the horizon? Just perfect.

Lien. I love this watercolor art you created. It reminds me of sitting on the dock at the lake. And I love sunsets on water. You captured this so beautifully. Great job!

“Shine Bright” is perfect for the first days of Spring! I particularly liked the flowers with your continuation of the purple and gold theme from your prior art piece “Optical Illusion”. Skol!

Wow! Your spirals are an ancient sign of the energy of life! We have seen these same spirals in Ireland and Mexico created by people thousands of years ago.

Lien. This is another great piece of art you've created. It looks like you are learning a lot of new techniques that you bring to life. Great job!

E-media art? Wow! Great message about the world needing each one of us. Fun!

Whoa! Moai! Yes, I know first grade work, but I just recently received access to your portfolio. I knew exactly what it was from your drawing. Next time you have a clay sculpture (like your Clay Owl) project (or maybe I should try myself), it would be interesting to make a clay sculpture of an entire Moai. https://www.britannica.com/place/Easter-Island/Archaeology. Fun!

Big Bird? Looks a bit like Edvard Munch's "The Scream". Which recently sold for $120 million. I like it!

Your "Landscape" (including your Colorado inspiration) is very good! It reminds me of various well-known artist landscape paintings from the US Southwest. The far distant mountain range is a lighter color indicating distance. Interestingly, the solid colors are in contrast to your "Mini-Art" which emphasized various shades of color in particular the red color which you noted. In "Landscape" your red color at front is solid & bright indicating (to me at least) closeness to the viewer.

Lien's comment about fading the color red as well as overall art reminded me of the Rosette Nebula.

Minnesota Vikings focusing on future. Purple, gold, white … JJ McCarthy? Let’s go!

Letter K was pretty Klever!

Another great piece of art, Lien. Your blending of colors gives motion to this artwork. Super cool.

Another great picture Lien. I like your description of the movement of the trees. Hopefully you don't get stung by the bees though. That wouldn't feel good.

Wow, Lien. This is beautiful. Great job.

Nice job. Lien. The basketball almost bounces off the art. Colors are perfect. ?

Lien, your artwork and description of how you designed this composition is very creative and well done. Good job! Grandma V.

This is very interesting, Lien. The colors and shapes create fascinating piece of art.

Wow Lien. This owl is so interesting. You did a wonderful job with the colors and features. Love the eyes. Grandma V

Wow Lien. I love this owl picture. The colors and shapes add so much texture. We should keep our eyes and ears open at the cabin. I bet we could see one there. Love. Grandma V.

Wow Lien. This is really nice is it a mosaic. Great job. ?? Grandma V.

Lien, nice job on the drawing. Looks like the cabin. Grandpa Dan.

Lien. This is a beautiful picture. Looks like it could be a snow globe or a pretty night sky with lots of stars. Love it. ?? Grandma V.

I LOVE these landscapes! I put this one up in my office and I love looking at it! And my bookmark is so cool. Great job, Lien!

Lien, I really like this yarn art. It is so colorful. Keep up the great work. Love, Grandma V.

Wow, Lien. This is an interesting piece of artwork. Are those McDonald's French fries ??. Grandma Verda

This is an interesting Dragon Eye, Lien. It reminds me of the sculpture you just created with the marble. Your colors and shapes you used to draw this are really cool. Love, Grandma Verda.

Love the colors of your dragon eye.

Wow, Lien. This is so interesting. I love the color. Is that a marble in the middle? Grandma Verda

I like your picture Lien. Grandpa Dan

Lien. You did it again. What a great piece of art! Your Vikings theme is always interesting. Keep up the creative work. Love. Grandma V.

Lien. This is so cool. I think you should get a poster made and put up in your room. Go Vikes! Grandma V

Lien, I really like your Viking picture.

Wow, Lien. This is so awesome. Good job. Love, Grandma Verda.

This one is so cool! You did an awesome job with the pumpkins and shadows!

Looks great. Like the colors. Grandpa.

Interesting artwork, Lien. Love, Grandma V.

Sweeeeeet Turtles Lien. Grandpa Dan.

Wow, Lien. Another cool piece of artwork. You're doing a great job! Love it. Grandma Verda

Very creative Lien. Colors are great. Grandpa Dan

Lien, This is a really cool piece of art. I was excited to see it last week when you took it out of your backpack. The rocks are very interesting. Keep up the great work. Love, Grandma Verda.

Lien this picture is awesome. The colors are cool. Gramp Pa.

Love it Big Boy! Keep up the cool art!!

Lien, Love your moon and sun drawing. It is really cool! Grandma Verda

Lien, your artwork keeps getting better. I love this picture. You will have to tell me more about how you created it. Grandma Verda.

Lien, this is an awesome artwork. The colors and shapes are so vibrant. You did a wonderful job. Keep up the good work. ?

Very nice work. Very colorful Lien.

Bob the army ant is so cool. Great job, Lien. ? Grandma V.

Lien, I was so happy and excited to see your new artwork. It's beautiful and I'm so proud of how creative you are. Hugs. Grandma V.

This is really cool Lien! Keep up the good work! This summer we'll catch some real fishies at the cabin! Love Uncle Ben

Lien, Grandma Verda and Grandpa Dan love all your artwork. You are very creative and your pictures are beautiful. Keep up the good work. We are excited to see what else you create. Love you so very much.
