Adam these linoleum prints show such attention to detail. I know the puzzle piece process was not easy and it takes a lot of precision to use the exacto knife. I like the primary color scheme and feel you have really captured look and design of our property. Keep up the amazing focus and precision in your work! I am proud of your abilities and effort!

I like the dream depiction this sketch represents, it is very surreal. I noticed that the clock, (time) played an important role along with the anxiety the subject was feeling of not being sure of where they were. The background was very futuristic blending with current buildings which are how urban areas are usually depicted. I thought the lines and motifs were interesting and thought provoking. Great dream journal!

Adam I am so impressed with your shading and use of dark and light shadow on this artifact. You will have to explain how you did the etching on the linoleum to gain this effect. This is your most dramatic artifact to date! Keep persuing your creativity, it is certainly a healthy outlet and one that you are talented with!

Great job capturing light and shadow. You can see the definition in lines and contour I am curious how you could sketch or paint to reflect this same contrast with color. What medium would you use?

Fantastic work!

Adam the trading cards you made are fun and tell it's own Emmet story. I know you are a true Master Builder and the inspiration you drew from one of our beloved Lego characters captures his cheerful disposition and creative double decker couch mentality.

Van Gough is one of my favorites, I like the 3 D effect of the chair being a pop out. I also like your use of color to and line work to give an effect of shading and added dimension. This is a favorite of mine.

Adam I like the way the perspective of the road makes the houses on the horizon smaller to the mind's eye. You captured the dimensional feeling that I am walking on the road and the scenery changes. I can tell you worked hard on this project!

Adam I enjoy viewing your art online. This is such a great pictured of the bird, I like the use of color and how you captured the details on how it grasps the branch. Keep working on your lines. The tree has so much character because of the lines.
