I really like this. It reminds me of stacked coins or fingers.
-- Kathryn

Oooh! This work is active, creative, inspiring, and calming all rolled into one! It makes me think of a beach town AND neighborhood in the city... I want to live there! The irregular shapes remind me of birds. And of course the light brown/fawn object in the top left reminds me of Laverne.

Carina, the way you used the white paint on the jug makes it look like light is really bouncing off of it. I like the blue background, too. You created a sense of energy with it that is a nice complement to the "stillness" of the pears.
-- Amy

Wow! That's great! Good job on the shadow!
-- Nate

Interesting composition!
-- Kathryn

Nice work, Carina! Interesting how you use shadow. I don't think I ever learned that! Gramma Robin

Your use of just 3 colors and a seemingly simple design is captivating. It makes my heart sing.
-- Amy

What a beautiful sculpture, Carina! The sculpting and the mottled colors make the cat so realistic. It reminds me of some pieces from our favorite CMA. I can't wait to see it in person.
-- Amy

I like the lighting!
-- Kathryn

Carina, I really like the contrast here!
-- Kathryn

My favorite part of this picture is the little purple bow on top of her head. My eyes keep being drawn toward that purple bow. Love it!
-- Robin

I really like this one also, Carina! Even though there's a lot of darkness, the color shining through adds cheer and brightness. I'd like you to explain how you did this next time I see you. When I was little, we did something like this, but I think we scratched the picture to make the color underneath show up. Is that how you did it?
-- Robin

I love this cartoon!
-- Kathryn

I think this one is my favorite so far. The colors are so bold and powerful. I wish I could paint as well as you do. Let's set up some easels and practice soon
-- Nate

I love it! You're such a talented artist! I'd give you a blue ribbon if I could figure out how!
-- Nate

Nice work, Carina. Hmmmm..... maybe you and Amy could do children's books! Love you!
-- Robin

Very cool! I need a pottery lesson from you, all my projects were just big ugly lumps

Very lovely! I wonder if this is what the desert in New Mexico will look like.
-- Kathryn

Ah! A very favorite subject of yours! I knew you drew this one. Good work, Love you.
-- Robin

Wow! Hope you can tell me what she's thinking about.... Reminds me of the song, "Starry, starry night." The colors are so very vibrant, and the stars seem to twinkle. Good work! Love you
-- Robin

This reminds me of our trip to the zoo this past summer on that VERY HOT day! Somehow many of your pictures make me smile. Love them, and you!

This is still a favorite one. I had it as a screen saver for a long time. Keep up the good work!
-- Robin

Great job! I love this picture! Makes me smile to see the pose of the chicken and the rider proudly atop it! Nice use of colors, also. This would make a great shirt! Love you
-- Robin

Carina, this is such a different art form than I have ever seen you work with! Great job! I like it!

Looks like pretty jewelry with a bright light behind it. I like it!

I really like this one, Carina. Nice use of shapes.

Hey! Great work, Carina! I like the color and the smile - ears are interesting, too! Thanks for sharing this and the last one of the dancer. That was a great drawing, also! Happy Birthday, and keep drawing! Love you!

Carina, this is really cool! I wonder how you made it... it's something I would like to hold in my hand. Do you think we could make one together this summer?
-- Amy

Carina, l LOVE it!!!!! Colors are so vibrant. Great drawing! Gramma Robin
-- Robin

I love it, Carina! It's so SPRING! (The funny thing is I just found an old pot in the garage which I forgot I had put extra tulip bulbs into last fall.) I noticed about 8 bulbs sprouting green stems sticking up today, and was so excited! This picture looks almost just like it! Happy day! God bless, Love, Gramma Robin
-- Gramma Robin

Carina, you have created such a sunny, peaceful scene! I would love to have this view from my window! I especially like how you drew the flowers' petals.
-- Amy

Nice job, Carina!
-- Mom

You've captured the simplicity and serenity of Georgia O'Keefe's work with The Flower! It is beautiful!
-- Amy

Carina, I love your abstract cat, done in the style of Paul Klee! The eyes are so expressive! The giant ears and heart-shaped nose add character. I imagine the cat sitting around, telling jokes. Love, Aunt Amy
-- Amy

Hi Carina, Wow! Your Christmas night time picture sure is exciting! The way the picture is lit up, even though it's night, is great! Thanks for sharing the picture!
-- Gramma Robin
