When you get a compliment from Aunt Bonnie, it really means something! She and your Mother were very talented in art/design at young ages, like you, and it led to significant career accomplishments for Both! Stay with it young lady! Love, Grampy

Wow - Samantha, this is really difficult and really good! Love your choice of colors and the forced perspective looks so real, jumping right off the page at the viewer! You tackled a difficult task, successfully! Aunt Bonnie

Samantha-I am so impressed by your depiction of the dragonfly! You have not only captured accurate geometrical detail of its mechanical body yet managed to artistically and whimsically suggest the lightness of its wings! You depict detail in the foreground and lead us mystically down the leaf it is perched on to wonder what lies beneath its suggestive and precarious perch?! Very evocative, successful artistic depiction of the mysterious dragonfly! Bonnie

Pretty awesome dragon! Great color contrasts and sense of movement! I like the airborne luminaries too! Terrific work!

Samantha- I really enjoyed your architectural perspective water color! It reminds me of the Missions on the San Antonio River walk! You handled the water component and perspective so well! Your color choices are very successful,too! Aunt Bonnie

What an awesome display of confidence! Love it girl ! You GO GIRL! Are you still thinking about becoming a rock drummer and vocalist?! Let me know! Grampy ??

Certainly understand the “positive-negative” concept portrayed well by you. Trying to figure out the flavor of the cone on the left?! Maybe a sherbet swirl! Well done!

Very creative and detailed. Reminds me of an avocado filled with guacamole and black beans. I must be hungry!

Reminds me of the Albuquerque Balloon Festival. Quite an event to attend!

So interesting and creative. Much to think about and discuss on this one.

Really like the shading and highlighting lines that give the hearts a three dimensional look! Colors contrast nicely with backgrounds. Kendra Scott Jewelry might want you to design for them!????

I see this as a slice of avocado filled with green veggie humus and black beans. Great symmetry, colors and texture! Keep up your great creative work!????

Samantha- I love this piece!! It has color, depth and vibrancy - just like you! It’s also timeless and versatile! Aunt Bonnie

Very interesting 3-Dimensional piece Samantha! It’s a weaving and a work of art! I love the subject matter you chose! Aunt Bonnie

Are those marshmallows or eyeballs peeking out of the inviting hot chocolate? Great use of colors and in contrasting locations. Very inviting for a sip

I still love snow globes ! They seem to whisk you away from reality even just for a minute! There is a picture of you in your front yard tearing down an old melted snowman and every time I see it I crack up laughing out loud! Continue the joy of creating art !

Happy Holidays Samantha! I love your snowglobe drawing! You captured a festive spirit between the two snowmen. I love how you foreshortened their carrot noses and depicted the thickness of the globe itself! Great job! Aunt Bon

I can smell that hot chocolate from here , Sam!! You did a great job!

Reminds me of Fall back up in New England! Cool weather and an early crackling fire place makes the home cozy. The changing colors of the leaves are so beautiful to behold. Then the leaves fall, days become dark earlier, the yard and gutters need work, and soon it begins to snow and winter was upon us ! Changing seasons are both happy and sad but life’s clock advances.

Like this very much! Very impressionistic! Good bold contrasting colors! The use of the white space nicely enhances definition. Nice color palette. Great work! Keep it up ! ??

I like the shades of pink and blue! Symmetry is very good. Spirals and lines bring action to the eye. Overall good effort, but not my favorite piece that you have created. Keep on experimenting and producing !??

Very cool! Nice contrasting colors and I love the background that looks like spooky Halloween spider webs. I may get a print of this and hang it in our middle bedroom! Great work Girl!

Very cool Sammy! Lots of depth perception. You successfully scaled various items to the overall scene. You are rapidly advancing in your art talents. Keep it up in your own during the Summer. Grampy

This was my favorite!!!

Sammy you’ve created some really special artwork this year!! Congratulations

Love your new picture Sammy!

I trust this is a castle with various “coats of arms” displayed to show ownership in the Kingdom?! Otherwise….. it might be the façade of an outlet mall with displays of purses and suitcases for sale?! Help me out here……..

Really great Sammy ! Just in time for Spring.

I like the way that the use of lighter colors on the outside rim, and then shifting to darker colors in the middle, creates the optical illusion that there is a “funneling depth” to the “bottom” of the consecutive spheres. Great work Sammy! You will have to explain to me how you weaved the threads to make them stay in place. Have a great Spring ! Grampy

You’re my favorite love monster!! Great job SamJam Love Gram

I like the way you “tamed” the monster by giving it a big, bright pink heart. If you have a loving heart, it really doesn’t matter what you look like, because your heart and good mind will allow you to do good things for you and others! The pretty pink colors nicely contrast and complement the blue colors. Those teeth are scary, but the heart tells you it is truly a “Love Monster”! Continue your talented pursuit of art to express yourself and impact others ! Love, Grampy

WOW ! Spectacular blending of colors ! How could you ever decide where to place the black overlay heart shape with so many options?! Great presentation and creativity. Keep up the great creative efforts you enjoy! Love, Grampy

My favorite ! Cardinals in the birch trees! I like the stark contrast in colors! Nice snow scene for the Holidays! Thanks Sammy, you made me smile ! Grampy

Sammy- This reminds me of the squirrels and abundance of acorns this Season in my backyard around the pool. Very good detailing on the squirrel’s body structure! So lifelike! Keep up the amazing artwork you create for all of us to enjoy ! Grampy ??

Dearest Sammy: Excellent portrayal of Autumn! The colorful leaves are falling around the Halloween pumpkin in the patch bounded by the wooden fence! This makes all of us feel the cooler weather on its way as the Season changes from Fall to Winter. Hope to see you at Thanksgiving and maybe we can put this picture on our refrigerator to allow all the family guests to get in the proper spirit ! Great work ! Grampy??

Sammy- Did you use your hands and put hearts in them ? Nice background colors! Remember to provide your “willing helping hands” to help God to accomplish his work on earth. Love, Grampy

Great buzzing Bumble Bees getting nectar from the bluebonnets and prickly pear cactus! Awesome! Love, Grampy

Sammy- This looks like a cat to me and reminded me of Camo. I hope she is in pet heaven with Rex and Blaze! Love, Grampy

Sammy- This is one of your BEST! I think I see your dog “Oban”? See you soon! Love, Grampy

Sammy- Not sure I can figure this one out ? But I see some signs of Halloween! Let me know what I am missing please. Love, Grampy

Sammy- I see a cat, butterfly, cow, worm, and hearts! Very creative and colorful Love, Grampy

Sammy- This looks like something you may have seen in Hawaii with ocean waves, sun and volcanic island ! Excellent! Love, Grampy

Sammy- Love the colors! Need you to explain to me the Canadian Flag. U.S. now using plenty of solar energy to supplement oil, gas, and wind power ! See you soon. Grampy

Sammy- Great art work ! Looks like a friendly cat with a trusting bird on his head ! Hope to see you again soon. Love, Grampy
