Dear Cal, Already autumn leaves are turning brown—but in your beautiful painting, the colors are still alive and bright! I love the way you show many colors in one leaf: that’s true in nature. Your artwork shines with the beauty of yellow gold, orange, red and green, and even a bit of brown, reminding us of those gorgeous trees at their peak. I feel happy to see it! —LOVE YOU! xoxo

Whoo! Whoo! Who made such a stunning owl!! The blue feathers, green face and chest, orange beak and such big eyes are awesome while the full moon shines bright in the background. So proud as always and love you forever!

Dear Calum, The brilliant red apples in your new painting look good enough to eat! If only I could climb up to that branch for a taste:) That's the amazing thing about art. It helps us to look at simple things and see a new kind of beauty. You bring to life apples and leaves and butterflies and flowers, and so much more. Have lots of fun painting! I look forward to seeing some of your artwork in person. Sending LOVE always ~ from Grammy Patrice and Grampy Gary (PS What a wonderful moon dance you did in the light of the Harvest Moon!)

Cal, I love this artwork so much!! The colors are gorgeous and the design is amazing! It reminds of the class field trip to the apple orchard that we went on. It was a gorgeous weather day and we did so many fun things together. I love your class, your teachers and I especially love you!

Dear Cal, Wild grapes are a sweet and beautiful gift of nature. And your painting is also a gift. Not only do your deep purple grapes look lively and delicious--they also reflect the light! That's a painter's skill, and now it's one of yours. A grape vine's large leaves are great to see as well, and the one in your painting is changing color, green to yellow, for the fall. It's a joy to see your artwork, Cal! Sending you much love and a big hug xoxox ~ Grammy Patrice

Dear Cal, I haven't yet sent you a message about your butterfly painting, so will write to you now. I was so surprised and delighted to see your artwork! A beautiful pink flower, a striped caterpillar, and a bright butterfly, flying free--all in one painting! It reminds me of how life can change in the most wonderful ways. Thank you. I'm so glad to be able to see your art gallery each week. xoxox

You know how much I love butterflies and especially learning about them and their life cycle! This is a beautiful piece of art you created that shows the metamorphosis /transformation of these amazing creatures that is an inspiration to us all. I especially loved the picture of you painting where you were so focused and so engaged! Very proud of you and love you forever!!
