Brendan, you beautifully crafted this book. I really enjoyed flipping through the pages and seeing how one nature scene flowed smoothly into the next. These nature scenes evoked a feeling of calm in me, since they were so serene.

I loved seeing this in person too! It's amazing how you were able to paste and line up these lines so perfectly. It creates a really eye-catching pattern!

Brendan, I love your pinch pot and that it's designed to hold a whirlpool. You did such a nice job shaping this out of clay. Very creative!

I like the blue color of your whirlpool creature. Your statement about how your different pipes connect the different areas of your creation, reminds me of all the pipes that you used to use on our hillside. You ran a lot of pipes in the mud and have lots of experience guiding water around corners !

I am so impressed with your geometry calculations in preparation for this artwork. You are combining art with math into an intriguing final product. Congratulations, Brendan!

I am impressed at your description of how you went about creating this "natural scenes" artwork, and how you would improve it. You "think through" your approach to a work of art, rather than just throwing random scribbles on paper. kudos to you!

Brendan, you were clever in creating a man with a top hat using the reflection of your name! I wouldn't have realized your name was in the photo until I saw your comment. I like your creativity!

I love your explanation that you enjoy hiking and that’s part of who you are. What fun!

Brendan, this is a great drawing! Is it a self-portrait? Nice use of colors.
