Malia--your observations and detail are really poignant in this sketch. You have such talent and it was fun to review your artwork since 6th grade!! Keep on charging on!! Thanks for sharing!!

Awesome Malia! ?? I love how you "brought the outside in" with the tree and leaves floating around the classroom! Soooo cool, I love it!!!! ??

An intriguing story is portrayed in this scene which captures the viewer's imagination to interpret it on many different levels--is the damsel observing an actual scene, is she recalling something in her past or visualizing the future, what is her relationship to the figures in the distance? Your bold use of colors, composition, & artistry carefully stage this creative production.

i love flowers & this work reminds me of the hardy red daisies that grew on my grandmother's farm, it evokes fond memories of my valley days as a child.

I like your composition & sketching techniques, the precision of the lines in creating the shapes, the variations in shading, the contrasts between dark & light, how the two parts complement each other, I see good control in using the pencil. I hope you are encouraged to do more art compositions like this one.

Skillfully painted in bold & striking colors, a composition that tells a story about the young miss who is witnessing a vivid scene passing by her door. The viewer wonders how the two subjects are related & who is the third presence?

Pretty flower, the colors are vibrant!

Whimsical scene that looks like it's right out of a Snoopy cartoon!

Malia--Wow, what an imaginative scene with a little bit of reality mixed in with dreaming. It's beautiful!

Wonderful color selection! Its like a Christmas cookie.

This is so interesting! Looking to a distant Hawaii (surfer and volcano) through your house door. Nice.

This is SPECTACULAR! I love Snoopy, Red Baron, and the tweet bird! Nice colors and beautiful artistic rendering.

This ceramic art form piques my interest in Native America symbols & folklore that reflect respect for nature & all living things. I love the central focus & the colors of the ornament to be hung or displayed. -- Mae

A remarkable abstract done with dexterity & thought, allowing this viewer to react with different interpretations or stories that wander in my imagination. A creative design! -- Mae

A pleasing self-perception takes shape to reveal your beautiful features surrounded by vibrant colors. Love&Aloha, Tutu (Mae) -- Mae (Tutu)

A creation that intrigues me with questions like what emotion is being expressed, does it have magical powers, & is there a word or riddle behind its horn? An introspective art form reflecting deep thought & planning. I love it! Mae (Tutu) -- Mae

Crazy shoe, Malia! -- Leila

Malia--did you model this after someone we know? I like the colors! -- Leila

Malia, your art work looks intriguing & I hope you enjoyed creating it. Love from Tutu -- Mae

An interesting design crafted with symbols that have special meanings, the perspective takes the viewer to the far wall with colors that stand out among the black & white objects in the foreground. A thoughtful conversational work of art, great job, Malia. -- Mae (aka Tutu)

Looks like a Dali... Could be hanging in the Prado! -- Ford

Very stylish!! -- Leila

I really like this majestic giraffe looking out yonder. Very nice art work! -- Leila

Malia we love your art so much that we wish to "wear or use" them or always have them around as "keepsakes" by ordering some items for the ohana. -- Tutu

This giraffe displays sturdy lines & strong strokes which make it appear two-dimensional. The art work is beautifully done, reflecting thought & creativity & the enjoyment that Malia derived from doing her giraffe. Her grandparents are proud of her efforts & willingness to participate in this project. -- Mae

Great job! This looks like a painting that you'd buy at the art store. Keep up the good work! -- Ford
