Another artwork that is new to me! This is a fun piece, incorporating the whale and starfish with the contrasting lines and corners. I'm interested in knowing what the assignment was. Did you choose to limit the colors to just blue and brown? Very interesting piece!

This is very interesting. I'm wondering what the assignment was. Are these snippets of some of your art? Anyway, good job! G'Ma

I am now seeing a whole lot of artwork I've never seen! I love all your sea animals and the turtle is adorable. I know how much you love sea creatures, so it's cool that you can use them in your art assignments. Love you! Grandma

Hi, Maddie. Wow, I never saw this before! It's amazing! I really like the mountains and trees,? etc. Cool how you put the clouds in the varigating sky. Good work, Madison.

I LOVE the background on this piece, the different purples and pinks and the "speckles!' I also really like all the objects in the atmosphere. You are growing so much in your artwork and I love that you love creating your art. I love you, Grandma Lynne

Madison, this absolutely excellent! I love all the background colors. Your fox looks so amazing! I am going to look up the original artist's piece. You worked really hard on this and it really shows! Love you, Grandma Lynne

I love your art, it's beautiful. I especially love the little heart. You are so talented. Keep up the good work. I'm enjoying the pictures you painted for us, can't wait for you to see how it matches the room.

Hi, Maddie! So, this is an adorable pup! Where did you find this picture? I'm not sure what the assignment is, so hopefully you can explain it to me next time I get to see you. Looking forward to that! Love, Grandma

Well, this is new to me! This is really cool. I'm really impressed with the left side where all the stripes meet! I also like the circular objects on the front side. You did a great job, Madison! Love you, Grandma

Another excellent piece, Madison! The way you made the black and white pieces 3D is very good! This is so interesting and you really showed depth. The cones just pop out! I hope I can see it in person. Love, Grandma

Wow, this is really cool! You did an excellent job! I love how you "wove" the strips on the left side. Also the "bulging strips" on the largest side shown are really good! And the top! I hope you were happy with this artwork, because you should be. It looks like you used pencil with part of it, but I'm not sure how you did the black areas. Amazing job, Miss Madison! I love you, Grandma

Wow, Madison, what a challenge to not be able to lift up your pencil!! Good job! I've never even tried that. I'm glad you found things you like in your learning experience. I think her name is really cute, and I like your detail in giving her something to carry. I love how personal you make your art and how you think about so many details. I also like how you accumulate your art knowledge from past projects...good learning! You are an amazing girl! I love you! Grandma

Dear Madison, what a pretty name you gave for this beautiful girl! You did a lovely job with her. I'm so happy that you are so pleased with your drawing! The flower in her hair fits perfectly with her whole look. I wish I could draw faces better. You are really progressing in your art, and I love that you are so creative. Can't wait to see you again, Love, Grandma P.S. Where has that crazy brother of yours been?! I haven't seen anything new from him since "The Hand." Tell him "hi" and love from me! Your mom and dad, too!

P.S. I forgot to say that I really appreciate your title for this art, "I Need Space." Sometimes we just want to have "alone time." It's so important that you can share your thoughts and feelings with those close to you. And remember that you have people who love you very, very much and we are here for you. I am one of those, and I love you so much. Grandma

Hi, Sweetie, another fun white on black art piece! I think this would be fun to try. Do you use some kind of chalk pencil? It's so bold! I really like the smoke coming out of the cabin with its reflection on the water and also your amazing full moon.. Love, Grandma

Hi Madison. First of all, I love that you decided on a space theme, because I know you LOVE space! But also, I love the white on black. Your planets are really cool, and they really stand out. I DO like the little swirls in the night sky in this creation. Good job! Love you, Grandma

Hey there, sweet girl! I really like your "sea creature" theme! I'm glad I got to actually see this when we were there. I love that you have two of your favorite Bible verses. It's so important that we memorize verses to use throughout our day. Smart girl to include your photo for extra credit! Love you, Grandma Lynne

Well, this is interesting! You did a great job. I like that you are learning art history. I'm curious...is crumpling up the paper part of this particular kind of art in its period? Cool effect, anyway! Isn't it the most blessed thing that we don't have to do sacrifices, like they thought they had to? Jesus Christ was our perfect Sacrifice and He is all we need! We're planning to come over on MLK weekend. I can't wait to see you! I love you! Grandma Lynne

Hi, Maddie! I just saw this! So, this is "pop art?" It looks like a fun project. You did an excellent job replicating each of the shoes. They are so similar (except the colors, of course). I think my favorite one is blue/purple one. Good job! Do you have "Converse" shoes? They have been popular for a LONG time! I'm looking forward to seeing you and your family to have a Christmas celebration together. I love you, Grandma Lynne

Wow, Maddie, this is excellent! Your careful painting and detail are amazing. The nose is great. I love how much you love to mix colors! So fun! And what unusual and fun elements the headband and earring are. You're right... that eye is SO good. I'm so happy that you are happy with this art piece. I love you so much, Grandma Lynne

Hi, Madison. I don't think I commented on this before. Those yellow lines on the black are really cool. I'm not sure what your assignment was for this project, but it's great that you were able to alter it when there was something you didn't like. That yellow glows! You'll have to tell me what a "zentangle" is. I love you, Grandma Lynne

Hi Babe! I looooooove this puppy! And I love that you painted Jasper! That adorable nose! It's great that you used so many colors and that you mixed colors to make even more. He is so cute! You need to frame this art piece. I love you so much, Grandma Lynne

I like the title, "Waiting, Still Waiting", because although the girl would rather not be waiting in the rain, she has hope that her waiting will be rewarded. It reminds me of the Casting Crowns song, "Praise You in this Storm". The color contrast between the umbrella and sky drew my attention to umbrella, which turns out to be your representation of God's protection. The color of the girl's raincoat connects her to the umbrella's protection. Your brush strokes make the rain, wet ground, and wet girl seem realistic even though you were obviously not going for the realistic appearance of a photograph. I really like this piece of art.

Hi, Maddie! At my first look at this I was immediately impressed. I think this piece is one of the best (it's hard to choose) artworks you have ever done! First, I love your title! I also love your connection of your personal security in God's Hands with the piece itself. I so love your awareness of our Lord in your life. The umbrella is amazing! And I love the slanted rain! I'm in Texas at Aunt Kari's. I showed it to her and she wanted me to tell you that she likes it. Overall, you did an absolutely excellent job on this. I can't wait to see you! Soon! I love you so much, Grandma Lynne

Madison! This sky is absolutely amazing! I love all the colors, and the way you used your pink paint is outstanding. It really adds depth. The stars are super cool, too. The contrast between the sky and the more "real" elements, like the bench, cobblestone, etc. is excellent. I love you! G'Ma Lynne

Dear Madison, you really expressed yourself in your artwork here. I appreciate your boldness to share your feelings. It's difficult to be 12! Of course , I love your shades of blue! The bold darker background strokes really speak of your feelings. Great job! I so hope to see you soon. I love you, Grandma Lynne

I love your seal, I think it's adorable and you did an excellent job! He's very cute, I especially like his nose. I think you did a great job giving your rock dimension, and the background sky is a beautiful color. Love, Aunt Kari Now it's me, Grandma! I love your seal! She is absolutely adorable! I like the variation in color of the sky and the rock colors have.a lot of depth. One of your cutest art projects! Love you, Grandma Lynne

Madison! I love your analogous mountains! Those colors are gorgeous! I like that you were so creative in choosing unusual mountain and sky colors. Great job.l! I love you, Grandma Lynne

This is really great, Madison! I'm really loving green these days. And I love that you are learning so well about colors and their characteristics! I think we're going to be able to see you soon! Love you, Grandma Lynne

Hi, Maddie!! I commented on this project before, but for some reason it didn't post! I'm sure you put a lot of time into this. I hope it was fun, cuz I know you love Disney! Your format looks great and I love your Mickey picture. It's hard to see the other pictures, so I hope I can see it in person! Please be encouraged, because you do wonderful work. I love you! Grandma Lynne

Dear Maddie, I love how you have the purple drape on the wooden cross. It tells us that Jesus Christ is our Savior AND our King! God's Word says that we believers will also be royalty with Him in the future.Your little lamb is so cute. Jesus is The Lamb of God and our Shepherd! I also like the beautiful blue sky. I hope we get to see eachother soon. I love you, Grandma Lynne

Hey Doll! How adorable is this! I love all the blue in the main character and the sky. And how cute is your cow! This is a very happy piece of art. Love, Grandma Lynne

So,so cute, Maddie! I love this little guy's crooked smile! He (she?) looks so happy! Love you!

Oh sweet Madison! Don't be so hard on yourself! I love all the gorgeous colors of blue and white. I love you. Grandma Lynne

This is gorgeous. It just emits light! Excellent! Love, Grandma Lynne

This is amazing! All the details and different ways you filled in the spaces are great! If course, I love the Bible verse you used. Love, G'Ma L.

Your creatures are SO cute, Madison! The cow is adorable. I wish I could draw like you. Love, Grandma Lynne

I love seeing your artwork. That is one of my favorite verses as well. Your drawing is very fascinating and very well put together. You are so talented and compassionate of others. And I love you very much.

That is a beautiful picture. That verse is one of my favorites, everyone should read it daily. That would be a great picture for a mug. Good job Maddy.

Okay, Missy Madison! Sorry, but I don't know who Kevin is! He must be a bad guy. However, your artwork is very good in this piece. I especially think the book is excellent. I love you and I'm so happy that we will see you before long!

This doggy is excellent! What did you use... pencil, charcoal? Good job!

Pretty colors! So, is this art piece layered? It's great to try something new!

I like how personal this piece is, especially with pictures of both Jasper and Maggie.

Hi, Sweetie! This art project looks like it was pretty complicated! Is it kinda like a collage? I love the pretty purple you used throughout the piece. I really hope I will be able to see it in person in next time we visit. Love you, Grandma L.

Good job madison that is so sweet.

YAY! Shades of purple!! (And yellow) I really like the periwinkle color, the third one over from the left on the bottom row. Mixing up your own colors is fun, and you can get just the color you want! Love, G'Ma L.

Such a great idea to try out different colors before deciding what you want. I love the little pink flower and I love you! Grandma Lynne

This is really cool. Did you know that people sometimes make quilts similar to this, where they do all kinds of shapes in one quilt? It's called a "crazy quilt," and they can use up all kinds of old fabric scraps. Love, G' Ma Lynne

Hey Sweet Maddie! What a happy and great pumpkin! I love the shading on your little guy. I also love the purple night-time sky. Keep up the great work! Love you, Grandma Lynne
