Hi Ian, Wow! You have got me searching online for more information on The Day of the Dead. Thank you for sparking my interest with this original, interesting piece of art. Love your choice of color and each symbol spikes curiosity about it's meaning. Perhaps my favorite symbol is the large heart mid forehead. I cannot thank you enough for each and every study which you so beautifully bring to life for your viewers. Looking forward to your next masterpiece

Hi Ian, How did I miss this wonderful piece of art? It is amazing, interesting, colorful and beautiful. You have such fine talent! I feel as though I am viewing this piece of art from high above the swimming shark. Also, the second work makes me smile. Dot Art must have been an interesting class. Keep putting your wonderful imagination into your art.

Hi Ian, Thank you for this wonderful piece of art. I had not known of Keith Haring until I saw the title of your art and looked him up. So very interesting. How great that you have studied his work and with such crisp, clean lines created this simple and yet complex masterpiece. You have a keen eye for accurate measure, and placement...did you accomplish this in one continuous line? Amazing. Interesting. Puzzling. Truly great art! We are so very proud of your work.

Hi Ian, Wow! "Fort"" is amazing. I am wondering how you did this. I looks like stained glass, or some type of metal..............it is so intriguing!! Your art is becoming more and more interesting. I am so proud of your work and I hope you are too. TEXTURE PLATE must have been a great class and I can see you were paying close attention. I love this piece of art!! Maybe some day you will allow me to hang one of your wonderful designs in my home. I love your art. Keep the great work coming!! Grandma Mary

Ian, how beautiful!!! This masterpiece brings the viewer to the fields of Holland. I love the long rows of beautiful tulips and can almost smell perfume in the air as I view your work. The windmill is amazing and the sky and clouds make you "feel" the glory of the day. You did a wonderful job on "tulip field perspective". The color is vivid, and the whole piece is peaceful. Once again we are overjoyed to receive your incredible art. You are a very talented artist. Never stop creating! Nice work, Ian. Cannot wait for your next masterpiece...

HI Ian, Wow! Love this wonderful piece of art!! Your "all about me" project must have been lots of fun, because this art sure is. Let me guess.... I see a huge watermelon, must be something you love to eat. I see a terrific green shirt...either your favorite color or your team color. I see a large yellow fish...hmmm, maybe you like fishing??? Look at the black dog, does that make you think of Tobi? I see things that fly, and looks like things that run on the water, and some things with wheels and is that a scooter at the bottom? I love this. It really is about you and what could be nicer! Your art is such a wonderful expression of your talent, and your imagination. I think you are ACE!!! Keep the great works coming. Cannot wait to see what you have in store for us next. Nice work, Ian.

Hi Ian, Another delightful masterpiece for us to enjoy!! I LOVE "this is a thing". What is more amazing than a colorful butterfly! This beauty from your "bug Jar" study has everything going for it. Love the color of the wings, the look of the branch he can land on, and the little green leaf (maybe to help him feel closer to nature?). Love the lines of green and am especially interested in the wired unit which is plugged in....does this keep him warm, help him feel at home, or does it produce a sweet sound to soothe him? The whole piece of art is full of life and fun. You really have a wonderful eye for beauty and all things that fly. Thanks for sharing your talent with us. You make our day! Ian, you are a very talented artist.

Ian, "winged people" must have been fun to study, and "Man of the Year" is such an interesting guy. Brings to mind my favorite wish..to be able to fly! If I close my eyes, I can almost hear his busy wings fluttering. You did such a great job on this piece of art! I love it. Am I correct in thinking this winged person looks like you? Once more you have delighted us with your art style and wonderful imagination. Never stop expressing yourself through your art. You are amazing! Great job!

Wow! Such a colorful and delightful project. I feel happy just looking at Marky. He must be one of the most handsome bird of Paradise creatures. Ian, you did such a great job!! Love the colors you chose and the feathers make Marky seem to fly off the page. I especially love his beautiful pink wings and the blue tuft of feather on his head. Would love to see the rest of his friends! Please keep sending these wonderful pieces of art for us to see. Your talent is so appreciated. You made our day! Grandma

Ian, I am always impressed by your art, but Creeper Ship is just AMAZING. I can almost "hear" the roar of engines as this ship passes across the night sky. This is your best work yet!! I love it!! The color is perfect and the detail on the body of the ship is very realistic. Terrific work!! Keep sending these wonderful pieces of art for us to admire. We can hardly wait till we see your next masterpiece. You are a very gifted artist.

Hi Ian, What a wonderful piece of art! I hope you will frame it so some day, far into the future, your own child will see what a terrific artist you were. I love the design, and the way the leaves seem to "shimmer" with movement. You are an amazing artist. Lava Leaf shows me that you have a keen eye for design, placement and use of space. I can't wait to see what you have in store for us next. Keep the fine works coming....we so appreciate your artistic talent. Three cheers for you , Ian.
