Love this. Saw these peace signs a lot during the hippie day of the 70’s. The black and white really stands out against the beautiful colors of the background.

So interesting with the opposites! Is that a Japanese technique? Great job.

Some great pumpkins there, Gavin. Your color shading and lines on them make them very realistic!

What an amazing artwork, Gavin! Loved it. The great use of color and texture made for wonderful interest. Especially liked how the 4 yarn corner pieces tied in with the many smaller ones in the concentric circle. Terrific job.

What a great job, Gavin! The shading on the mug, the lines showing the grain of the wood, and the way you used the interesting material to form the hot chocolate, whipped cream and candy cane makes this collage look so real.

You got some really interesting snowflake patterns there, Gavin. Remember doing this with tissue paper when we were kids. What fun. Love how you set them off on the colorful background.

This brought back great memories of the many times we went touring in Chicago. You captured the feel of a great city in such a creative way. The way you used color and placement so nicely expresses a big city look. Well done!

What beautiful fall colors on these leaves, Gavin! The black background sets them off so nicely. Great job!

Wow, using glow in the dark paint on the fish sounds really cool. The other techniques were interesting, too, with great results! Very colorful and beautiful. Nice job!

Very cool project, Gavin. Love the colors you chose for for the look of turbulent high seas. Great job! -- Gramma and Grampa H.

Beautiful elephant, Gavin! Bet it was fun learning about them and their role in different cultures. This one’s very decorative blanket makes me think he belonged to someone wealthy. Using different shapes to frame him sets him off so nicely. -- Gramma and Grampa H.

A great job of showing the snowboarder in action, Gavin! The arms very nicely show the attempt to stay balanced. Have you ever tried snowboarding? Bet you would be good at it! -- Ken and Betty

This looks like it was a fun one to do. Do you like working with clay? Very clever how you left a whole for the pipe cleaner tongue before “firing.” Love the colors. -- Ken and Betty

Love the bird perched on the snowman’s carrot nose. Can tell the snowman is happy to have a friend and the bird loves his perch! Great job of drawing. -- Ken and Betty

Great job, Gavin. Looks like it tasted really good. Love how you gave it dimension with green background and appearance of the apples being on a table. -- Ken and Betty

Great job, Gavin! You have really so effectively created the look of a pumpkin patch at midnight. Can just imagine Charley Brown and his friends waiting for the great pumpkin there! -- Gramma and Grampa H

This guy looks like he fits right in with the wild things! Great job of using various shapes and solid color to show the different textures on him. -- Gramma and Grampa H.

Love your blue dog. The way you used the different colors makes his features stand out so nicely. He reminds me of Barkley a little bit. Bet it was a really cool book to read! -- Gramma and Grampa H.

Love your bowl with fruit and delicious looking bagel or donut. The paper for the background makes everything stand out beautifully. Great job! -- Ken And Betty

The beautiful colors in the sky make me think these people that live in this house on a snowy hill are enjoying a beautiful sunset. Love the stars that are appearing. Great use of color and shading on all! -- Ken And Betty

Interesting picture Gavin. With a measuring cup and bottles with great looking ingredients inside, are you getting ready to make something? Like how you used little lines on the caps to show that they are screw caps. -- Ken And Betty

Love your clay turtle, Gavin. The different things you did to give the shell a realistic look and texture are amazing! -- Gramma and Grampa H.

My favorite snowman emotion is the last one. You did a great job of turning that really sad face into a beautiful smiling one! -- Gramma and Grampa H.

Gavin, I had sent a comment before telling you how much I liked your polar bear and what a great job you had done showing the motion of the snowflakes and the shading on the bear’s fur. Will send this just in case the first comment never made it through. Well done! -- Gramma and Grampa H.

Love your Polar Bear, Gavin. Looks like he is staying nice and cool with the snow flakes in the air. Great job of showing their motion and also the shading on the bear. -- Gramma and Grampa H.

Great job on your collage, Gavin! The water lilies and colorful fish are right at home in their pond. The use of several shades of blue for the water is especially effective. -- Ken And Betty

How well you have shown the owl’s eyes and beak, Justin. Your use of color helps us know just how big and round their eyes are! Did you get to read any stories about owls? -- Gramma and Grampa H.

Andy Warhol had a famous way of painting and you have done a beautiful job of studying that way with your flowers! -- Gramma And Grampa H.

Love your penguins floating on icebergs, Gavin. The colorful lights in the sky can be very beautiful where these penguins live, and you have shown that beautifully! -- Gramma And Grampa H.

What an interesting background that you attached the heart square to. The colors flow so nicely with the black outline making the heart stand out as the main thing to look at. Good job Gavin! -- Ken And Betty

Great job, Gavin. Bet it was fun to put it all together and have it come out so well. -- Gramma and Grampa H.
