We look forward to hanging this original, colorful art at home. This self-portrait provides many clues to your passions. Well done! -- dad

I also like the contrast of the black and white print with the color version. -- dad

Nice use of color and a smile on your face! Good job! ILYTBs! -- dad

Joshua- this is beautiful! Is it a block print? I used to love doing those! -- Jessica

Impressive! You have some talent and I hope you will continue to develop it! -- Daryl

Your self portrait truly reflects various aspects of who you are! I love the references to books and reading and am proud of your soccer achievements. Anda Brasil! -- Dad

Thus is an impressive self portrait! Your use of shading brings depth to your facial features and your use of color draws the eye to the portrait. You have so many talents! -- Aunt Daryl

So proud of the thought and message being sent by this "peace", I mean piece. -- Aunt Daryl

Great campaign against bombs, especially nuclear bombs! The US Secretary of State may want to use this poster. Love, dad -- Dad

Nice to see you celebrating your Brazilian heritage! Love, dad -- Dad

This reminds me of our sunny paradise. Thank you. -- Dad

After admiring this "photograph", it looks like a photo of a big tree, looking into the sky. Interesting angle! How did you do this? What made you think of this angle? -- Dad

This explores a new area of art. Congratulations! How did you do it? Does it have a title? Love, Dad -- Dad

This is your best work ever! I love the use of color and the personalized theme. It is a wonderful souvenir of our beautiful beach with dolphins. Love, dad -- Dad

I can't wait to see the original.

Fantastic!

I loved seeing this piece on the web; and I love it even more when I got to see the original work at home! -- dad

You have a very creative and artistic eye. I really like the vase. Your choice of glaze ussd on the vase added interest to the piece. Your dad created a clay fired bust when he was about your age. Perhaps your eye for art came from him. -- Aunt Daryl

I love the way you used the entire page, the colors and shapes represented in your drawing. Very expressive! -- Mom

Joshua - Gabriella loves this vase! She asked if you could show her how you made it. She loves drawing too - though doesn't completely understand why the walls are off limits :) maybe you could explain that too? Looking forward to seeing you in July. Beijos -- Aunt Jessica

Superb, expressive and elaborate vase! Congratulations. I love that you are experimenting with different media in art. -- Daddy

This is fantastic. I love the color, the shadows and the perspective. It reminds me of the exact place we visited. ILYTBs! Dad -- Dad

What a bright and imaginative image you have created. I like your use of contrasting colors and your interesting mix of shapes. I'd like to learn more about this image and if you have named this piece. Perhaps you inherited your artistic abilities from your grandparents. I love you to bits! -- Aunt Daryl

Dear JW, This is an outstanding work of art! Congratulations for adding depth, space and color. Can we frame it and hang it at home? Did you sign it? I love it! But I love you more. Love, Dad
