We love everything about this: books, flowers, colorful leaves, puppy, and especially your silhouette. An awesome start to 5th grade art!
Posted 2 months ago by Grandma Debby and Grandpa Rich
The use of a silhouette is really unique, and it's definitely "you." I especially like the autumn colors and, of course, the sweet puppy! :)
Posted 2 months ago by Grandma Jean
It looks just like you! Books, puppies, nature...and a cute little nose. :)

Posted 1 year ago by Grandma Debby & Grandpa Rich

This picture makes me think of spring and flowers blooming and the earth coming alive again - one of my favorite times of the year.
Posted 1 year ago by Grandma Debby and Grandpa Rich
We bet this took a while - there are a lot of dots in this picture! This makes us think of the windy weather we've been having lately.
Posted 1 year ago by Grandma Debby and Grandpa Rich
Nice sun! We especially enjoyed seeing this today since it was rainy (and then snowy!) here.
Posted 1 year ago by Grandma Debby and Grandpa Rich
Wow! I know you had a number of setbacks in your design and creation processes and making all the changes in your vision was stressful, but you made it all work so well and it turned out ah-ma-zing! Great work, baby!

Holy buckets! That's an AMAZING horse drawing, Clara! Is this the Chinese Zodiac project you talked about? Were you born in the year of the horse?
Posted 1 year ago by Mom
I'm glad I got to see this in person. I liked your explanation.
Posted 1 year ago by Grandpa Rich And Grandma Debby (fan)
Nice! We love the colors and designs. Grandpa Rich thought your picture looked like a combination of Alma Thomas's Starry Night and The Eclipse.

Posted 2 years ago by Grandpa Rich and Grandma Debby

We love the colors and all the detail! It looks like you had fun creating this.
Posted 2 years ago by Grandma Debby and Grandpa Rich
