Ellie: You created pottery pieces that are very practical to use: bowls and paper weights. Very colorful with great shapes.

Ellie: Excellent interpretation of WayneThiebaub's ice cream cones. Simple yet colorful. The shading of the ice cream shows exactly where the light source is coming from and realism to your piece. I noticed you decorated the cones with some of your favorite things which makes your art unique.

Ellie: Your artwork of a heart in a landscape reminds me of Jim Dines and what he is famous for. I interpret your piece for the love of life, your sister, your pets and the parents you have. The boldness of the heart you drew using shading in addition to the strong red of your heart brings the viewer into your artwork and thoughts. That is what a good artist does. Great rendition!

Ellie: Your soda can design is well balance and bold. The brand name stands out against a white background. The bubbles possibly represent the flavor such as cherry flavor.

Ellie: Your watercolor illustrates a humorous side of a very cool turkey in sunglasses, wearing a scarf to keep warm, and a hairdo of curly locks. The placement of dots on the exterior of the feathers is an interesting accent to the turkey's feathers and definitely shows the turkey is dressed to impress at the Thanksgiving Day table.

Ellie: Your art piece is a great representation of the project given to do: using freeform lines, rounded intersection of pattern while using soft colors and shading of pastel watercolor. A very calming piece for the viewer to look at. Great job!

Ellie: Your sense of humor came thru by deciding to make a walking haunted house! The use of shadow in the clouds and moon adds to the spookiness of your Halloween scene, The leafless tree and bush frame the haunted house very well and enhances the detailed haunted house as the focal point. Great project!

Ellie: Great art project illustrating a balloon dog. The bright yellow, green, and blue colors used for the balloon dog and ballons make these objects stand out against a black and white background. Your use of dimension is well done.

Ellie: Very nice sandcastle illustrating it in a dimensional art project. I like how you placed a right tower and a left tower giving proportion of height between the bridge/wall of the castle. The outlook towers in the back right gives a sense of depth castle. Good job!

Ellie: Great effort illustrating Johua Trees in your desert landscape using the art technique of a one point perspective. You have a vanishing point, which gives your landscape dimension. The Joshua Trees are lined up and placed on a horizonal line from large to small illustrating distance. The other cactuses that you drew and colored gives, in the same one point perspective, interest to your piece.

Ellie: It is said that a "picture is worth a thousand words". Your art project illustrates just that. The care of the earth is definitely in our hands. Great use of dimension placing the earth as the focal point of your art piece nesting between the moon and mars.

Ellie: A very unique character created from the symmetrical drawing of your name. Great use of bold and pastel colors. I can see the characteristics of a cat, your favorite pet, in your name.

Ellie: Nice artwork. Reminds me of snap dragons...tall and slim columns of buds. Great use of pastel colors

Ellie: You crafted some great pottery pieces. Fantastic effort on the yellow pedals of the sunflower. Folding of the pedals with line creases adds a very realistic look and dimension. Indentation of the seed pods in shades of brown as depth. Not to waste any clay, the little odds and ends you made are very imaginative.

Ellie: Nice job in layering of your Mola collage design. Very creative use of layered shapes and sizes defined by colors used. Great intricate detail.

Ellie: Nice landscape perspective inspired by Dr. Suess. The trees have curved trunks in addition to the colorful puff ball foliage of trees. The light and dark colored rolling hills give dimension. I like the large white fluffy clouds in the blue sky. The Lorax would be very happy romping thru your landscape! Nicely done.

Ellie: Your artwork is a great interpretation of Keith Haring. Your piece shows rhythmic motion and with the use of bold out lines and colors illustrates the hope in humanity and the love of life. Great job!

Ellie: I like the bright watercolors that you used to give a particle effect of colors with your brush strokes. Your application makes the heart stand out. Great job!

Ellie: Your haunted house silhouette collage looks very spooky against the tinted blue night sky. The bright white moon, flying bat and white tree highlights your drawing very well.

Ellie: There is nothing like a penguin dressed up for Christmas. Penguinisesta, no one can miss who you are dressed up for the Holidays in your black and white tux...accented with a green, red and white scarf with a white pompom at the end. Great drawing.

Ellie: The symmetrical designed Christmas car that you drew, driven by a snowman, looks like it is ready to delivery toys, from Santa's list to all those good boys and girls. I like your detail work from the wrapped presents to the special messages on the ballons. Rusty Road Mobile is a clever name.

Ellie: Great job in your interpretation of Klimt's "Tree of Life" using light and dark shading representing a Fall tree. I like the variety of accents used in decorating.

Ellie: Great job in layering the acrylic paint to make the star and snow decoration of the blue ornament stand out to show dimension. I like the use of blue for the night sky.

Ellie: Great job on your project! You have captured very well the swirling strokes that Van Gogh would use to express texture and depth in the use of shading of color using different mediums of watercolor and oil pastels. Great job!

Ellie: Excellent illustration of how using groups of small uniform squares to create larger groups of rectangles and squares to make a portrait of a blocky Minecraft selfie portrait. I like your use of bold color used. Great job.

Ellie a nice job in depicting a brown woodland owl. The colors of the background makes the owl stand out while perched on a branch. Great effort!

Ellie: Your "Springtime Puffin" really illustrates how colorful the bird is which makes it stand out amongst all the other birds in it's environment. Great job!

Ellie: I like you art work from your class project "Ornaments". The use of bold contrast of colors from the back ground to the shading of the tree needles, to the colors used for the ornaments on the branches is a great job! The simplicity of your effort is fantastic,

Ellie: You nicely illustrated through your drawing, the detail and uniqueness in architecture of the California Mission Santa Barbara. The exterior columns, the grand exterior door, the bell towers, Job well done!

Ellie: Sometimes your sense of humor comes out in your art work. All the snowmen are wearing different colored scarfs and hats. But the one that makes me giggle is the snowman that is wearing the raindeer hat and is very creative. Also, each snowman has a special nose....is it a carrot nose, a stick nose, or a potatoe nose? It looks like you had fun creating your snowman trio. Great job!

Ellie: Your pumpkin pie looks three dimensional and delicious with the with the different shades of brown used.....with a dollop of whipping cream placed on top. The purple plate high lights the pie nicely.

Ellie you are getting so good at shading and showing depth in your art projects. I like how you illustrated the glow of the moon in your Halloween sky which highlights the flying bats in the orange hues on the night sky. Great job.

Ellie I like the colors used in accenting the strong simple rolling hills of your interpretation of a folk art landscape. The house in the middle of the drawing is a great focal point in the picture. Great job.

Ellie: The pottery bowl you made is beautiful. I like the way the bowl is painted.. the color is darker around the rim and you lighten the color towards the bottom of the bowl which gives added dimension and depth. Great job!

Ellie: Your bubble machine art project has great detail with the use of bright colors. The black and white back ground is perfect for the red gum ball machine to stand out filled with gum balls of many colors.

Ellie: I like your interpretation of how Matisse would use colorful and bright pieces of paper shapes to make his collage. Nicely done.

Ellie: Excellent job in your symmetry butterfly project! Just like in nature, the butterfly's wings are symmetrical, having the same design on it's left wing as well as it's right wing. Job well done using brilliant colors in the wing design. The background, that you created, makes the butterfly appear, to me, ready to flutter off the paper to someone's flower garden. Good Job!

Ellie: Your water color love bird project is nicely done. The blending of dark to light water coloring that you did with the birds makes the mother and her baby chick three dimensional and stand out. Nicely done!

:Ellie: Your interpretation of a Britto landscape is fantastic. I look at your abstract piece as a sunset using bright colors and geometric shapes. Great job!

Ellie: I enjoy seeing the various depth of water color that you used to bring out the vibrant color of the chick and the painted Easter eggs. Great job!

Ellie: Your monster boom box looks like it is ready to play the song "The Monster Mash" to get all those monsters in the city to dance to the beat! Terrific contracts of colors used to make your monster boom box stand out. I like the bright color turn knobs and the design of the speakers. Great job!

Ellie the heart you made is very colorful with bright colors. And yes, you are kind, trustworthy and strong. I am very proud of your heart.

Ellie your watercolor project of a cup of hot chocolate looks so inviting. It nicely suggests to the viewer that maybe it would be a good idea to have a hot cup of chocolate on a cold winter's day. How wonderful to include the melting of marsh mellows, a colorful straw as a stir stick and the cup of hot chocolate placed on a festive checkered tablecloth. Good job!

Ellie your picture of a Christmas tree in a window reminds me of walking around my neighborhood on a snowy day and admiring a Christmas tree in a window with beautiful bright and colored lights and how magical it looks. Good job in your rendition.

Ellie: Excellent art project hiding your Turkey. I like the way you illustrated the tail feathers of the turkey and the expression of the turkey's face. Your turkey looks like its really wondering how to get out of the box. Great use of contrasting color. Project well done!

Ellie: Your cat Bella looks so excited about Halloween sitting in the happy pumpkin. Your brush strokes illustrate the shades of color used and depth. Good job!

Ellie your bubble gum selfie is very colorful! Great job!

Ellie: It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words. Your art project says it all. The viewer can see you like football, painting, pumpkins, giving Rosie doggie treats, using your iPad, and saving your pennies...maybe for something special. Great use of color and very well done.

Ellie I like your sketch and paint project….so many flavored layers of color and texture. Great detail. Looks yummy to the eurs

Ellie: what a great color wheel drawn using an umbrella to illustrate a happy day out of a rainy one. I wonder who is standing under the umbrella in the rain puddle. Is it you? Art assignment well done.

Ellie: Your art project "Ants in the Grass" is a great rendition of how much ants enjoy crawling amongst the blades of grass to find food and for protection. Your ants look happy and you illustrate great detail in your picture.

Ellie your block letter mosaic is outstanding. Your use of chartreuse and turquoise against a black background makes your initial "E" stand out. How you placed your capital ''E" helps frame the three sides of your mosaic nicely. Excellent work! Nana

Ellie your cupcake looks very yummy with all the colors you used to decorate from the icing to the sprinkles Nana

Ellie you drew a very happy environment for the happy frog. I noticed the white fluffy clouds in the sky with one cloud dancing in front of the sun. Very nice that you showed movement. The accent of the rainbow after a rainy day adds many colors to your sky. Good job

Ellie you did an excellent job on your biography portrait. Tracing is a skill. Your effort to be precise while following the lines from the folds of your subject's blouse and shawl makes her clothing look 3 dimensional. The variations and shades of color you placed from your subject's skirt adds to your attempt to capture dimension. Illustrating shadow on your subjects face is excellent because it shows how light varies the color of skin. Great effort in tracing off of a picture.

Ellie you did a wonderful job illustrating the snow owl in flight and the length of wing span and the power of flight of the owl. The snow in the blue back ground makes the owl appear to be flying toward you and stand out. Good visual dimension applied.

Ellie your rendering of Frieda Kahlo, a biographical portrait, is amazing. So much detail was illustrated in your interpretation of what the artist actually looked like. Great work.

Wonderful portrait of your family. Everyone has a smile. Great attention to detail of each family member

Good use of the fall colors of brown, yellow and orange to illustrate your turkey. The back drop of a blue sky and white clouds makes the turkey stand out.

The polar bear is ready for winter wearing a very colorful hat that you carefully drew on top of it's head. Nice picture.

Your cat looks so realistic. The detail to features is fantastic! Good job!

Eleanor your art project is very creative with the use of bright colors is very eye catching. An excellent abstract. A drawing very well done.

Ellie: You have done an excellent work of abstract art with lines intersecting and some of the squares and rectangles filled with vibrant primary colors. I like the column of blue and yellow. It balances your picture. Perfect job
