Arlo, Your self-portrait is so well done. The technique you used to create the appearance of fabric on the Steph Curry jersey is very impressive. The facial image you created, and the colors used definitely emulates Bisa Butler's style. Great job! Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo, Looking at this piece it's as if you drew one and cloned the others. They all look so similar. It's like that game, "find what is different in each one". Great job! Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo. Very interesting looking clay mug. As well as being able to draw and paint, you are a ceramist. So many fun art projects! Great job! Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo, A very colorful city you created. The various heights of the buildings, the many shaped windows, the sky with clouds and sun plus the highway traveling into the distance - great job! Good job with the coloring!! Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo. Your anatomical drawing of a heart is a very interesting piece. So distinctly drawn are the aorta and the various arteries. The shaded areas and the various lines and circles are well done as is the background color gradation. Great job! Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo. What fun this art project had to be. So many different techniques to achieve the final piece. Your narrative on how it was done was so interesting and explained it so perfectly. Such a great job! Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo. Such a creative piece. Papa and I both studied it very closely and feel WARRIORS is your word in this radially symmetrical design. It was interesting and fun searching for the letters and the word. Another great art project and so well done. Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo. A beautiful artwork piece. It looks like stained glass with your name flowing across it, and the color palette you used is relaxing such as the Neurographic technique used to create this piece. Great job! Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo, I researched Bisa Butler checking out her work, and I am so impressed how you were able to create the image of Steph Curry using the tools and techniques of this contemporary artist. It was so interesting to read your teacher's detailed description of how this type of art was done. You did an amazing job! Love, Mimi

Arlo, this piece is exquisite. What an amazing job you did with all of the steps it took from the beginning of the project to the end. I am all about symmetry! It was interesting to read cardboard tubes were used to create this piece which has such a delicate finished look.I love the colors you used and the glitter. A truly wonderful job you did! Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo. Such an interesting art project! I was fascinated looking at all of the bones in this very true-to-life looking x-ray. Your attention to detail is right on. Great work!! Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo. I love seeing your first piece of 5th grade art on Artsonia. Reading your teacher's narrative on how it was created was so interesting. It sounds like you have another great art teacher. The background colors you used are so vibrant and make the black-and-white pumpkin pop. You did an amazing job with the contouring and the various graphics used throughout the pumpkin. Great job! Love, Mimi

Arlo, Awesome sewing and needle work on that turkey!! It’s really good. I hope you enjoyed doing it. I love it. ??.

Hi Arlo. This Fiber Arts project is remarkable. The embellishments you added to the stitch work are a perfect complement. If I had been in Kohler, I would have loved to observe you learn all of the techniques and then use them to create this piece. The next time we are together, I would really enjoy hearing all about this project. Maybe you can teach me how to do running and whip stitching. Such a fun art class you have! Love, Mimi

Arlo, I love this drawing. It reminds me of our farm. You sure did a great job on this. Love you. Jill

Hi Arlo. Such a unique form of art to create this pumpkin. The different sizes of dots used on the pumpkin add to its dimension. So interesting to read that the background was created by dipping cardboard in paint. The colors you used on the pumpkin and the background are a perfect complement to each other. Great job! Love, MImi

Hi Arlo, Wow!! This is excellent!!! My jaw is dropped. It looks like a Picasso drawing of Andy Warhol. Very original. You are a very talented artist. I love you.

Hi Arlo. I'm so excited to begin seeing your artwork this year. Your depiction of the two views of one's head at the same time is right on. I researched Cubism artwork; that style creates very interesting pieces. Some similar to a jigsaw puzzle which you were able to do since you were a toddler. As always, your use of color and the elements of art needed to create a piece are very good. Great job! Love, MImi

Hi Arlo, I love this drawing and see it everyday because I ordered it framed and it is hanging in my living room. Thank you for drawing and painting such beautiful artwork. I love you. Jill

Hi Arlo. This art piece is beautiful - from the colors you used and how they blend, the various painting strokes, how the flowers are placed in the vase and how the vase has a cracked glass looking effect. Very creative and well done! Terrific job! And I saw it was framed for the art show! So proud of you. Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo. You did Peter Max proud! All of the bright colors you used and the ones you created by mixing colors, plus your creative brush strokes, make this piece so vibrant and eye catching. I love the large heart in the forefront - big hearted just like you! Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo. This assemblage/collage method of art makes your robot have dimension and so interesting. Great job on the pipes of the robot! The entire piece is very creative! A Picasso in the making. Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo, Your robot is WAY COOL! And your pipes really look 3 dimensional. I have that same typewriter that’s in your assemblage. Keep learning, drawing, and having fun. Love, Jill

Hi Arlo, Your drawing of the Grinch is so amazing! The way you drew the eyes and mouth add a perfect expression to its face. Love the treatment of the hat and neckwear making the image complete. When I first clicked on the site and saw this, I said, "WOW"!! Great job! Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo. This art piece is beautiful - from the colors you used and how they blend, the various painting strokes, how the flowers are placed in the vase and how the vase as a cracked glass looking effect. Very creative and well done. Terrific job!! Love, Mimi

Arlo This is fantastic. Your use of color, dimensions, and detail make this piece simply outstanding. Keep up the good work.

Dear Arlo Another masterpiece. I LOVE this Van Gogh you’ve created. John and I enjoy Van Gogh’s art and have a few prints of his on our walls. I will be adding this to our collection. Thank you. Love, Jill

Hi Arlo. This is an intriguing piece - so many elements and shapes and figures making one look and study it so closely. Using only blue and black adds to its mystery. Very interesting piece. Another great job! Love, Mimi

Arlo, Your Emma Larssen drawing is GREAT! It really caught my eye. I’d like to buy this one for my living room. Thank you for sharing your talents with me Love, Jill

Hi Arlo. Interesting painted robot you created. The various shapes you used on its face and torso and the long robotic arms are very creative. Good job!! Love, MIMI

Hi Arlo. Your first art piece in 3rd grade! I especially like the background which has a watercolor effect and the black and white overlay abstract images. Great job! Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo, I really like your newest painting and the striking colors. Thanks to you and your drawings I am learning so much about art and different artists. Thank you. Jill

Great job Arlo!!! The blending of colors and your style is truly incredible.

Hi Arlo, This is such an exciting piece! All of the elements you portrayed, how you placed them, and the colors you used with the black background, make everything pop and so eye catching. A stunning Tree of Life. Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo. You have become quite the artist this past school year. Your creativeness, technique and use of color and how you can capture an artist's style - like you did with Jonas Wood - and make it your own is remarkable. I am so proud of you. I love this recent piece you did and have already placed an order for a framed print. Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo, This is an amazing piece; it has so many interesting elements - how you created the black and white background, the vase and the colored background which looks like a watercolor technique, and the modern looking plants that complete the vase. I will be ordering a print of this!! Love, Mimi

Dear Arlo, I showed John this wonderful drawing of your modern plant, and he said, ”That is TALENT. Arlo is a talented dude.” We love you, and your artwork. Jill and John

Arlo---Great use of colors ---Excellent Job!!!!!!

Hi Arlo. Such a great depiction of the polar bear. I love your use of color with the black and white. It makes the polar bear’s face take notice. The background is beautifully done. It has a charcoal painting effect. I love this piece. You are very artistic and creative. Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo. You have created another interesting art piece. Your use of color is very good. I especially like the subtle differences in the shaping of the mouths, eyes and noses but yet similar enough to illustrate it’s a family portrait. Great job! Love, Mimi

Dear Arlo, I love this heart and it's message. I think I'll get a T-shirt to wear and spread your message of love and caring.

Dear Arlo, This is FANTASTIC. It is SO cool. Great job. Your drawings bring me joy.

Dear Arlo, Hi. I really like this family drawing. All of your drawings are so interesting and well done. I'm so proud of you. I love you.

Hi Arlo. A perfect piece for Valentine's Day! It appears the valentine has a fabric effect. You'll have to describe to me how you created this. Your top caption "Love and wear a mask" is a wonderful message!! Great Job! Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo. Papa and I love this piece because of the many cardinals we see around our yard and deck. I was studying the background effect and thought it had a decoupage look, which makes it so interesting. Thanks for explaining to me this past weekend exactly how you created it. Great job! Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo, Your cardinal is my absolute favorite!!! What a fantastic job you did creating it. Thank you for sharing your great artworks with me. I love you.

Arlo this is truly a fabulous job--you certainly outdid yourself on this one!

Hi Arlo. I am learning so much on the artists and their works by the paintings you are doing in your art class. This art resembles Henri Matisse's Goldfish piece. I like the softer colors that you used in your piece. You are doing such a great job. Keep up the good work! Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo, Your Matisse really caught my eye. I love your version of Goldfish in a Bowl. The colors are so bright and beautiful and your drawing is so cool! Great job!! I love you.

Hi Arlo, I really love these colorful leaves. Your artwork is always so interesting and original. Always so much fun to see. I sure wish I had a tree on the farm that was filled with these blue leaves. Love, Jill

Arlo, I love looking at all of the feathers and seeing what is different about each. Using a black-and-white background makes the feathers "jump" off the canvas. Adding the glitter is creative in making this piece, modern fall feathers. Love, Mimi

Arlo, this is such a creative piece. Each feather has different elements and the placement of each perfectly fills the canvas as in Allover painting. The areas where you added glitter, certainly makes this piece pop!! A wonderful painting you did. I'm going to order a print to hang. Love, Mimi

I really like this one Arlo---Another GREAT job!

Hi, again, Arlo - I just checked out James Goldcrown's 'bleeding hearts" art. You did an amazing job following his style for your art piece. Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo, You have created another very interesting piece of art. The overlay effect of the hearts and using a variety of colors make this very eye catching. Great job! Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo, I like the intersecting, overlapping hearts. To me it symbolizes the overflowing love you give and receive. You're in my heart. Great job! Jill

Hi Arlo, A great Van Gogh! I really like your brushstrokes and the colors you chose. It's beautiful. Jill

Hi Arlo, Every time I look at this very interesting drawing I see something new: colorful fried eggs, an opened avocado, flying saucers returning to their mother ship, lifesavers floating in the ocean, and yummy frosted donuts. And I love the background color you chose. Great job! Jill

All the various sizes of dots makes this piece very interesting - has a bit of solar system look. Another great use of color!! Great job Arlo! Love, Mimi

Hi Arlo. I love your first piece of art in the 2nd grade. The pumpkins are so perfect for the fall season, and I especially like the one stroke painting technique you used for the background. Great job. Love, Mimi

Great job Arlo !

Arlo this is fabulous!

Hi Arlo This is a fantastic piece of art. I especially like the square shapes you used to make a border along the edges. This makes a nice frame around the heart. Good work! Grandma

Dear Arlo, Uncle John is a fan of Vincent Van Gogh. When I showed him this painting of yours, he said, "Van Gogh would be proud!!!"

Dear Arlo, I really enjoy seeing your drawings. They make me feel so happy! They are all so good I can't stop smiling.

Arlo----Another great job buddy!

Great nature picture Arlo---Keep up the good work

This is a great piece of abstract art. The colorful shapes within the black-and-white line art shapes make it such an interesting picture. Another great job, Arlo!

The sunflowers you painted look so real, and the colors used for the vase make the entire picture pop. Great job!

A very interesting piece. I love how you used words to frame the picture. Your use of color is great!

Hi Arlo - This is one of my favorite pieces. Your use of color and how you were able to achieve the texture and pattern effect are very creative. Keep up the good work!
