Olivia, first thing I want to know is "how did you do this piece of artwork?" It makes me want to reach and and get a hug from an angel... maybe you or Alley..or both. Very nice use of contrasting colors to give your subject more interest and very life like. Where did you get all the materials to compose this pleasing work of art? Nice! -- Poppy

Olivia, you were having a fun time with this piece of artwork, I'm sure. I think I shall call it..."Poppy Tickles Olivia"! Very interesting subject matter and use of creative expression to make me laugh, when it is you who I am supposed to tickle and make laugh! -- Poppy

This is another painting I missed in my email. You know how much I enjoy wildlife, and this painting brings the outdoors to me in a very special way. Your colors are fun and full of vibrancy and texture. I won't have to go hunting for this artwork anymore. Good job, Olivia. -- Poppy

Another missed painting in my emails, but I really like it, because it reminds me of some paintings by other famous artists. Very nice use of colors and contrast, and I even see a couple of flowers that have the BCS colors, plus the vase. Against a puple background it all has the look of royalty fit for a king, queen or princess. Nicely done. -- Poppy

This is another painting I missed seeing in my emails, but Bubbe took care of that and now has it displyed in our home for all to enjoy. You know how much the birth of Jesus means to me and your painting of that great event is heart warming. It is very peaceful and calming just as the song we sing at Christmas...Silent Night, Holy Night, all is calm... very nice indeed. -- Poppy

Somehow I missed getting to comment on several of your art work pieces, Olivia. That was my oversight. The painting of the cup of ice cream reminds me of the times we have spent at sweetFrog enjoying delicious treats. Yum! I like the use of color and texture in your artwork that gives depth and contrast to the central theme. It almost makes me want to reach in and grab the cup and yum down, but then I realize it is only a painting done with much care, skill and love of creativity. Great job! -- Poppy

Oh wow Olivia. This is great! I am a big fan of the late great artist Pablo Piccaso who specialed in "cubism" paintings, and your art work reminds of that style. I love your vibrant colors superimposed underneath your blue mosaic pattern of squares. It gives me a visual of a three dimensional painting and is most interesting to study. Way to go. Keep up the good creative work. -- Poppy

Olivia, you are developing into a fine artist. Your subject matter reminds me of the Triple V where we have a barn and some trees. I must say your barn looks better than the one at the Triple V and your trees are well-groomed and colorful. I need to do some tree trimming at the ranch so our trees will look like yours. You have really captured the essence of farm life with animals in their natural environment. In fact your horse reminds me of the pony IO used to have. His name was Chili because he was brownish....sort of like your horse in the picture. I also like how you chose a bluish grey for your sky that reminds me of some very interesting clouds with a really bright sun shining through. You have an amazing imagination of how things are on a farm. It takes me back into my childhood on our farm even. Plus I can only imagine what your fluffy sheep must be thinking as it eyes the feed trough. Yummy, Yummy....now fill my tummy! Very nice Olivia. I'm so proud of how you create reality in painting. -- Poppy

Olivia, this pottery is an example of how creative you are with colors and textures in your art works. I love the vibrant burst of colors you used to convey interest and variety. I would like to know how you did this, because it looks very hard to do. I've never done anything like this, but I am an artist and appreciate the talent of others who are creative. You have a very special gift to create. Use it as unto the Lord for His glory. Love, Poppy -- Poppy (Rick)

Olivia, This is a GREAT work of art! Can you show me how you did this the next time I come to your home? I find the branches and texture of the trunk fascinating! I am going to buy another magnet for my fridge! I am SO glad that you are taking art from such an amazing teacher. Show her great honor! -- Bubbie
