This is really beautiful, Ollie. When I look at it, I feel I am floating upwards with the sea creatures toward the light. It is a very peaceful feeling.

What a great way to make a self-portrait. I remember that cover by Norman Rockwell. I like the way you are leaning into the mirror to see yourself. Nice work, Ollie! You are doing some very interesting projects this year. Please pass my appreciation along to your teacher. Keep on creating. Grandma G.

Olivia This is a beautiful "Tree of Life creation" based on the work of Gustav Klimt. Not being familiar with Klimt, I did some research on him and looked at his work. It was interesting. I look forward to seeing this project in person. It is bright and joyful and full of life, just like you! Keep making magic with your art.

Olivia, What a great paper mache animal you have made! Its happy face has made me smile from ear to ear. I like the construction techniques you used on the beak. Keep up the good work. Love, Grandma

Ollie, The color combinations in this stylized portrait are beautiful! Your Grandpa G. enjoyed pastels. He would be so proud of your talent. I am proud, too. Your placement of the warm and cool colors in this piece gives it depth and creates mystery. It makes me want to know more about the person in the portrait. Keep up the good work! Thank you for sharing your website with me. I look forward to future postings.
