You creativity hasn't waned as you have gotten older Sam. You always have an interesting way on interpreting your assignment and giving it that personal "stamp" that makes it uniquely yours. Never lose that ability, it will pay dividends in so many aspects of your life. Love, Dad

Sooooooo cool Sam! I am willing to bet there you alien doppelganger somewhere across the universe thousands of light years away probably looks exactly like this! You'll have to show me how you did it.

Optical illusions are one of my favorite artforms! I love how a two dimensional drawing can become a three dimensional mind puzzle. And this one gives a nod to my all-time favorite of the genre- M.C. Escher. I have so thoroughly enjoyed watching your artistic skills grow over the years. Love, Dad
- Tom (Father) on February 4, 2020
