-- Sarah

Ruby - well done! You have some amazingly beautiful textures in this piece. I am proud of you.

Groovy Ruby!

This really works as a painting, not just as a detail of a lantern (which is rather incidental!). Your work is becoming more and more confident and interesting--I love seeing how you're growing and am excited about what's still to come. Keep going!

A fascinating image, Ruby--I'm really impressed with what you're learning and exploring at Mercy. Wish I had had such great art instruction in high school--hope you'll be inspired daily to keep creating such work!
-- Sarah

Ruby, Chase says "It's not great. It's better than great!" He instantly recognized that as your hand, and said, "oh we have those things" (rings). I cannot tell you how impressed I am by this! This could hang in a gallery, girl! Keep doing awesome! You amaze me!
-- Rachel

Ruby, That is a good one!
-- Judy

Looks like your drawing skills have taken a quantum leap this year, as well as your growing sense of color and design--very impressive and I'm really happy you're increasingly "at home" with making art! Looking forward to seeing more of your work by joining your fan club!

Ruby ... Wow, just wow!

Super cool, Ruby! I've always liked purple and yellow together. I can't wait to look at this with you so you can explain these techniques to me :) You're amazing!

-- Rachel

Ruby this is amazing, and I love how the colors are all incorporated and play off of each other. Impressive!
-- Rachel

Ruby, you just keep knocking me over with theses works!
-- Judy

Cool!
-- Rachel

The use of cross-hatching in the composition is done with the contour of the shape to show the roundness of each object. The spacing between the cross hatching is large in the background and smaller on the main forms to draw more emphasis to them. The cross-hatching also shows texture and unity throughout the piece.
-- Emily

That's a good one Ruby.
-- Judy

Very cool, Ruby!
-- Rachel
