I love this redesigned flag Quentin! The bald eagle in the middle is a classic symbol of American freedom and strength. You have captured the revolutionary spirit of "DON'T TREAD ON ME" (Christopher Gadsden 1775) with the expression on this bird's face. Well done Quentin!

Great dot Quentin! I love the theme of the work. You have many dots within this dot, symbolic of the complexity of something as seemingly simple as a dot. This is perfect for International Dot Day! This will look excellent on the mural and will complement other dots very well. Keep up the great work Quentin, we are all excited for another year of your awesome artwork!

Now you have had the thrill of making your very own little dish. Will you plant a seed or flower in it? Or perhaps save coins in it?

Great work Quentin! The post impressionist movement was significantly impacted by Henri Rousseau's work.

You show us complexity in simplicity, nuance in plain sight. Keep up the great work!

-- Uncle Dave

Great artwork Quentin! In his art, Jasper Johns doesn't try to convey a specific message; instead, he prefers that his audience interpret his work and find its meaning themselves. You have clearly asked your audience, "what does this mean to you?" I answer that it represents a beginning, a celebration, a ritual, and a new tradition. Keep up the great work Quentin! You help us all look for meaning.

Great job Quentin! Paul Klee was a transcendent Impressionist, and your work would make him proud. The symbolism of the book pages under the painting is not lost on me Quentin. You show us that this city has a story, perhaps many stories, under the surface. You point to the sky with optimism, while reminding us that every city has a story behind it.

Awesome apples Quentin! Cezanne's work on something so seemingly simple as apples on a table were part of a much larger movement, a change, wrought with complexity. Impressionism's transition and link to Cubism is not only a relevant part of this story, but is evident in your artwork as well. Few artists have the courage to change their style, literally and figuratively, in the middle of a painting. You have done just that with this masterpiece! Keep up the great work Quentin, your art tells a tale that must be experienced.

I love this blueprint Quentin! It is nice to see the budding architect in you as well. Winston Churchill said - "We shape our buildings, and afterwards, they shape us."

I am SO proud of you, and I know your parents are, too.
-- Bev

Quentin, this latest work has inspired me to attend the Matisse/Diebenkorn exhibit at the Baltimore Museum of Art.

Great work Quentin! As I noted on your first self portrait, these are among the most difficult of all paintings for most artists. You did a fantastic job. As you slowly shift from abstract realism to post modernism in your style, you continue to tell us about yourself with your paintings. This year, you reveal how much you listen...and all that you hear. You also tell us that you always watch, but you do not always need to be seen. Keep up the great work!

It has been so interesting to see the progress in Quentin's artwork throughout this year in Kindergarden at Roundtown! The "Three Mice" was his early art, and it has progressed to this great "Self Portrait" with the facial features, hairstyle, and a shirt ... with some distinctive print and a pocket. Quentin has captured so many details! What great creativity for this special artist! I am so proud of him!

Great work! Self portraits are among the most challenging of all paintings for most artists. I see that Quentin was not daunted by this task. His return to abstract realism is evident in this work. He not only gives the observer many possible interpretations...he also asks us to consider how we see him, and ultimately ourselves, with this latest creation.

This is a great collage Q! I love it! Very good looking butterfly. You can see the influence of surrealism even in a collage style. Many consider the artist Man Ray to be the best American collage artist. I am pretty sure this is better than most of his work. Keep up the great work!
