Hi Vivie! I love this! I think it is one of my favorites…….because of the BOLD bright colors and I can see how sophisticated you have become as an artist and an amazing, bright, bold young lady. This could be the Vivian flag and to be sure I’d fly it on my flag pole! Your teachers have done a fantastic job teaching and tapping into your talent and creativity! Keep the good stuff coming! Love, Grammy

Hi Vivie, This piece is very cool and interesting to me. I’m wondering what was in your thoughts when you were creating this......I see a house / buildings near a bridge that has collapsed, over land . I love the sunshine and flowers! There is a creature lurking near by ....OH MY! Very creative my dear Vivie , I can’t wait to see you in person and discuss! Love you! Grammy

I see that you have studied the painting by the Norwegian artist Edvard Munch, called "The Scream." It's famous. Good work!

Love this! Very scream worthy.

I was trying to think of the artist that this lovely piece reminded me of. It is Miró and Vivie, you executed this beautifully in the spirit of the Spanish artist Joan Miró. Love, Oma

Dear Vivie, This is an amazing sugar skull with colorful candy decorations. The symmetric hands seem to reach out to grab you. Are those boots that will then take you away to the other world? Love, Oma

Dear Vivie, Happy Holidays to you, both Thanksgiving and Christmas. I love your so tall green tree with a baby Jesus on top. I think of wishes to send to the world as gifts and especially wishes to you. Enjoy the countdown of Advent to Christmas. Love, Oma

Vivie, I absolutely love your caterpillar! She reminds me of the one from the the book The Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle! Keep up the good work! You are doing an excellent job and I look forward to seeing more! Love you! Grammy
Posted 5 years ago by Grammy
Dear Vivian, I have missed your artwork and I love your interpretation of this much-loved caterpillar. The balance on the branch is exquisite. It helps to have so many feet. Is the feature at the back the cocoon? The colors on its face anticipates its future as a butterfly. Love, Oma

I LOVE your interpretation of love in block letters. It's beautifully executed, especially the stained glass "E" and the accent of the floating heart. It warms me to see it. LOVE, Oma
Posted 5 years ago by Patricia (Oma)
Speaking of "love" -- I love this piece! The E is very Mondrian. I love your use of color to tie the letter O in with the other pink patch while also grounding it in the strong diagonal context of the L and V.

Yum popcorn. I love the symmetry of p's in the label and the rows of marching popcorn kernals.

May I say ... that is one perky turkey!

You chose such vibrant colors for your turkey to offset its brown body - yellow, orange, red for the spread of feathers, a red wattle and a prominent yellow beak. This turkey really stands out!

Beautiful composition and the collage work is reminiscent of Matisse while the googly eyes are an excellent reminder that life is a constant surprise and we should be prepared for anything. Great work!

Wow! Your hedgehog definitely invokes Miro's early fauvist period while commenting slyly on the post-capitalist dialectic. And I love his Mona Lisa smile and his little pink tail! I feel like this hedgehog's got it figured out in a way that I don't yet.
Posted 6 years ago by Uncle Ryan
Your hedgehog looks so huggable in spite of its spines. Its face is sweet and its heart is uplifting in so many ways.

Vivie, I love your hedgehog! Your pencil detail is amazing and the red heart catches my eye and my heart! ??

Your hedgehog is darling. He (Or is it a she?) looks calm and content and you gave him kind eyes. I love his teeny heart balloon!

Dear Vivie, I really love that I can see your artwork from where ever I am in the world. Your bird is fascinating! It is getting cold in Chicagoland and our birds are heading your way for the winter! Good work ,
Posted 6 years ago by Barbara
Wow, Viv! This one makes me smile, because I love flowers! It reminds me of all the times you’ve visited me at the flower store and helped me with arrangements. I like all of the different textures and soft smudges - they really compliment the soft colors you chose. So pretty! Keep up the good work!
Posted 6 years ago by Aunt Carolyn
Wow! This one is a stunner. I love the dramatic use of figure-ground here. Such strong diagonals. The tension of the yellow beak extending into the frame at mid-left is perfectly resolved by the protrusion of brown turf at the bottom right. Super!
Posted 6 years ago by Uncle Ryan
Your choice of background is reflected in the horizontal branch that your construction bird is perched on. I see that you used your favorite color pink with a touch of orange for the wing. I like the way you cut and arranged the pieces of the bird. I think you liked doing that. Nice balanced cutting. The green leaves on the brown branch are very creative and well done in small pieces.
Posted 6 years ago
I see you you used soft colors for the petals and the center. The open flower is almost floating on the blue frame. Did you make a fantasy flower or one you see in a garden?
