I thought I had commented on this one, but this snowman reminds me of Olaf! -- Papa

Hey, I really like this one. I'd like to find out from you what the colors of the face mean to you. Eyes looking up! I like that. -- Papa

GOOD GOING LAN. WHERE CAN I BUY SEVERAL OF THESE TREES SO I CAN PLANT THEM AT OUR SCHOOL? WE DO NOT HAVE THIS SPECIES IN CALIFORNIA. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK UNCLE DENNY -- Denny

This doesn't look like any forest I've been in but it will sure go well in my kitchen! Good work. -- gammie

Great use of vivid color in this one, Ian. I really like it. It reminds me of some of the totem poles I've seen in western Canada. -- Papa

This one looks like sailboats on a windy sea! If that isn't what you were going for, I still like it very much. I think this is one of the more "framable" pieces of art that you have done. -- Papa

Great pumpkins Ian they seem to be dancing very cheerful. -- Gammie

Pumpkins are a very colorful image at this time of year. I really like the rich, colorful way you've represented these four pumpkins! -- Papa

I really like this one. It would be a good one printed on a t-shirt! Nice work. -- Papa

this has the potential of being good and very colorful but not sure why she would post an unfinished picture. -- Gammie

I've been looking forward to the art that you will be doing in third grade this year. I like this one. When I see you again, I hope you will explain to me why all the "x's" and "o's"! -- Papa

This is an interesting one, Ian. It would be cool to put it in a window with the sun shining through. -- Papa

Good one, Ian, and with real feathers! -- Papa

My favorite backyard bird, Ian. Beautiful. We have two pairs of cardinals who regularly visit our bird feeder. We really enjoy them. I'd like to see you draw/paint some other birds too! -- Papa

DEAR IAN, I DID NOT KNOW YOU DREW FOR MOVIES. THESE LOOK LIKE ACTORS IN A NEW VEGE TALE MOVIE! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. UNCLE DENNY -- Denny

COOL PICTURE LAN, THE FIRST PLACE I THOUGHT OF WAS YOUR GREAT, GREAT, GRANDMA WHO LIVED IN CEDARVILLE, CA ON THE RANCH. IT IS A VERY COLD EVENING AND THE BIGGER PART OF THE STORM IS COMING. ( ONE TIME I WAS THERE AND HAD TO GO OUT AND FEED THE COWS AND IT WAS -17 BELOW ZERO) THIS YOUNG MODOC INDIAN BRAVE, WHO HAS SKINNED HIS FIRST COYOTE AND MADE A COAT, IS COLD. HE IS SURPRISED TO FIND A LUCKY BEAR BLANKET TO WRAP IN, AS HE IS A LONG WAY FROM THE VILLAGE. -- Denny

Somehow I had missed this one. Don't know when you did it, but it's beautiful! -- Papa

Hey, Ian, this one would make a good Christmas card--or a note card for anytime in the winter season. Really like it! -- Papa

Love it Ian but curious to hear about it. Looks like there may be a story with this one. -- Gammie

DEAR LAN, I LIKE THE PICTURE YOU DREW. TREES ON AN ICY AND COLD MOUNTAIN. I HOPE OUR TREES WILL BE COLD AS WE ARE TO GET 4 INCHES OF SNOW THIS WEEK. MERRY CHRISTMAS -- Denny

I can almost smell the sea air as I look at this one, Ian. Well done. The waves are especially nice. -- Papa

I BET THE TOP OF THIS FELLOWS HEAD LOOKS LIKE MINE...NO HAIR! -- DENNY

Crazy hair day? I don't see any hair at all! Were you trying to trick us with this one? -- Papa

Big, bold letters! I like this way of beginning your new school year. Looking forward to more art soon. -- Papa

. -- Denny

DEAR LAN, NICE ART WORK. I THINK YOU ARE A BETTER ARTIST THAN I EVER WAS. ALL I CAN DRAW ARE FLIES AND MOSQUITOS! (GREAT GRANDPA JOKE) KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND DON"T PICK ON YOUR BIG SISTER. -- Denny

Hey, this is the second owl in a row for your art projects. I like it. Are you especially interested in owls? If you are, we can study about them together. -- Papa

I love that owl would like to meet him in person. Gammie -- Gammie

I like your interpretation of a starry night, good picture Ian. Gammie -- Gammie

Every one of your pieces of art, Ian, is better than the one before. And I always like pictures of birds! -- Papa

I especially like the jelly fish in this one, Ian. Remind me to tell you sometime about the octopus that I put in my aquarium when I was about your age! -- Papa

When I was in school, Ian, I really enjoyed learning about the color wheel. Sometime I will bring some paints when we can make a color wheel by mixing the primary colors into secondary colors. It's cool! -- Papa

I like this one best of any you've done so far, Ian. I've printed it and am going to put it in my library window for the sun to shine through! -- Papa

You are doing some nice things to show what winter is like. The snow man in an earlier piece of art and this one would make a nice pair of pictures to frame and have on a wall. They'd also make some nice winter note cards. -- Papa

That snowman makes me smile Ian especially the hat and teeth. -- Gammie

Great portrait of a snowman, Ian. The snowflakes and the hat make it very real. -- Papa

Sorry I just saw that it is a basket full of apples very nice yellow delicious and one red one red one. -- Gammie

I like this very cheerful picture I think I saw it at your house and I am thinking it is a basket full of flowers is that right? -- Gammie

Good one, Ian. I especially like the way you have shown the weave of the basket. -- Papa

Dan, I love it very bold. I want to see this in person! -- Gammiep

Good, bold colors in this one, Ian. I think it would be interesting to put it in a window--like stained glass--to see how the light would come through it! -- Papa

Nice butterflies Ian did you color the grass at the bottom also? -- Gammie

It won't be too long, Ian, before winter will be coming with colder weather, and this artwork of a butterfly will help us to remember warmer days! I like the vivid red color of the butterfly in this. -- Papa

It is interesting to see a kind of art that is more than just drawing or painting. The choice of colors and shapes make a very nice design. I hope I can see this when we get together next time! -- Papa

I like it Ian, is that a kite in the background? Aren't you glad to have such a cool name and so easy to write! -- Gammie

This are nice, big, bold letters! You could maybe use this way to sign all your pieces of art. I'm looking forward to seeing many more this school year. -- Papa

I'd like to see this one in person hope it didn't get smushed -- Gammie

Good one Ian I think it's a bulls eye -- Gammie

This is a nice arrangement of the rainbow colors. -- Papa

Hey, Ian, I like this one best of all you've done so far. Sometime we will have to collect some lightning bugs in a jar just like this. -- Papa

That's pretty cool Ian. I think it would make a good party decoration! -- Gammie

Very bright and colorful, Ian. I like this one. Maybe when we are together we can see if it will fly! -- Papa

You've been busy while I was gone! I like all 3 new pictures that I saw but remind me to ask you some questions about the castle picture. Love you Gammie -- Gammie

Excellent picture of castles. It makes me think a little of the Lord of the Rings! -- Papa

Nana and I really like flowers, and this one uses some very vivid colors that make the flowers very bright. Maybe sometime at home, you could draw some flowers that you see there! -- Papa

love this design Ian. What are the materials? -- Gammie

Very nice artwork Ian. -- G'Dad

Wow, Ian! I like this one best of all so far. It reminds me very much of some paintings I saw in Hong Kong a couple weeks ago. Rich colors and graceful balance. -- Papa

I can't wait to see this one in person. I really like it. Tell me when you bring it home! -- Daddy

That's my favorite ladybug!! -- Gammie

What a great idea, Ian, to make some models of fossils of your own. I have always been interested in fossils and can see the trilobites very clearly. And your daddy liked to study about fossils, too, when he was in grade school. Good job! -- Papa

Hey, Ian, I really like this ladybug. Now I want to read the book about the grouchy ladybug--or maybe you can tell me about it. -- Papa

Love the snow bears Ian! -- Gammie

This picture shows how much fun snow can be. I'm wondering if these are the three bears that Goldilocks knew! -- Papa

This picture will also make a nice holiday card for Christmas 2014, good work. -- Gammie

good dots Ian, you must really like going to your art class! -- Gammie

That is really a very nice winter scene Ian. Good work! -- Gammie

I like the way you have shown the snowflakes coming down in the sky and in front of the trees. -- Papa

Everything looks very snowy and icy in this picture, Ian. It is just like the winter scene in our backyard. Very nicely done. -- Papa

I have seen modern art works in museums that aren't as good as this. I think I must have a copy of this one! I like the others too but so far this is my favorite. I'm so glad that art is important in your school! -- Gammie

I love the bright colored pumpkins and the blue background. What a great Thanksgiving painting. -- Aunt Heather

I didn't know till today, Ian, that your artwork can be seen online too! This picture makes me want to read the book about the dots. You'll have to tell me about it when we see you again. -- Papa

I love the dots!!!!!!!!!!! good job Ian! -- maddie
