Wow -- I never did learn how to do perspective. This is so cool. Have you ever thought about becoming an architect? I think you'd be great at it. -- Laurie

Great perspective -- Wayne

Et voila! Here we see the inside of la boite! -- Laurie

Gorgeous girl! I love the lighting on this one. -- Laurie

Great way to use art to heighten awareness of this issue. -- Laurie

The proportions are just right. I think you got your talent from your great-grandmother Robinson. -- Laurie

Beautiful photo of a beautiful young lady -- Wayne

she said it's a filter that she put on the pic to create the texture -- Stephanie

Well, first, it's great to see your lovely self. And second, I want to know about the textured background. How was that done?? -- Laurie

I'm drinking some orange-spice tea right now, in the middle of a snowstorm, but it didn't come from anything as cool-looking as this :-) -- Laurie

Chapin, I just finished copyediting the text for a wall calendar of interesting "collectible-quality" teapots for one of my publishing clients, and I think yours would fit right in! Are you a tea drinker? I am -- especially in the winter. Great job :-) -- Laurie

Very fierce-looking. This would scare the heck out of my dentist :-) -- Laurie

Hey, this is very cool! Wish I could be there to try it out. Love you! -- Laurie

I only saw this from the back -- didn't know there was a face on the other side. Fun! -- Laurie

How cool is this?? I'm just now seeing it for the first time. Did you use someone you know as a model? -- Laurie

I love the subtle shading that adds a sense of texture to all the elements here, Chapin. Well done! Cindy and I send lots of love. -- Laurie

Beautiful! -- Laurie

The perspective on this one is really well done -- I'm impressed! I never learned how to work with foreground and background to give dimension, so I admire your skill. I also like the contrast between the lighted windows of the building and the more muted trees and building on the right. Love, -- Aunt Laurie

Much more talented than her Grandfather! Excellent work. -- Wayne

I love this, Chapin. Maybe someday when you visit us here in Maine, we can go over to the university and see Professor Bernie. He's a world-class papermaker and teaches classes in papermaking and bookmaking. He even has some work exhibited in the Smithsonian in Washington, DC. I'd love to hear how you made this, and hope you enjoyed it. The soft colors are especially unusual. -- Laurie

I love going to the Giant Eagle near your house! It's much bigger than the grocery store in our small town, so I get to see different kinds of food that I don't get to see or buy here. All the detail in your picture reminds me of how much is in that store. And I like the way the women are dressed. Nice touch :-) Love you. -- Laurie

I love the colors you chose for this one; you have a great eye for color! Well done. -- Laurie

I love the shape of this piece -- it seems very touchable -- and the contrast between the shiny and matte textures. -- Laurie

Chapin: Best flower I've ever seen you make! -Grandpa -- Grandpa Wayne
