Max, we love your jack-o-lantern project. You used a lot of different elements to create this colorful project. The background really makes your jack-o-lantern pop. Your use of curved lines on the pumpkin help make it look real and you didn't forget to put a stem on top. The black construction paper for the face features help give it the carved look. Well done! Love, Gramma & PapPap

Max, I saw your new art project, Pencil & Paper Line Design this evening. Your pencil with eraser looks almost real, I love it. Also, that you drew your own lined paper, very realistic. I also see that you used some of the lines you learned with your last art project: dashes, curly, wavy and some others. I can't wait until we see you in less than 2 weeks and you can share with me some of the other lines you used. Well done, Max! Love, Gramma and PapPap

Max, Your first artwork in first grade and you nailed it!! I see you used a number of different shapes, lines, and colors in your Line Rockets artwork. I saw straight lines, zigzag lines, wavy lines, dash lines and curly lines (which are kind of tricky). Well done, Maxie!!! Love, Gramma and PapPap

Max, what an outstanding job you did with painting Monet's Water Lillies. I bet it is because you, like Monet, really enjoy nature and the outdoors and your artwork positively reflects that interest. Go Maxie, go! Love you, Gramma & PapPap

As I shared in your postcard we sent, this heart artwork makes me smile each time I see it. The contrast between the dark outlines you used and the colors in between makes for a perfect stained glass heart. The background shades in pastel colors helps to make the heart POP. Love, Gramma and PapPap

Max, Wow, this is so great, and we hope this is what we are going to see on Monday, April 8, 2024...of course with our special eclipse sunglasses. We love your renditions of the eclipse in advance and will hope to get plenty of gift souvenirs with your super Eclipse artwork. Love, Gramma & PapPap

Max, You must have remembered your trip to Muleshoe-Bend-Recreation-Area- when you started drawing these bluebonnets. They reminded me of the picture with you sitting in a field of bluebonnets. Keep up the great artwork. Love, Gramma and PapPap

Your work always brings a smile to my face and I love that you signed your artwork with your name. PapPap and I can almost hear your cow "mooing". You are becoming quite the artist. Love, Gramma and PapPap

Max, The background colors you chose help to make your frog stand out. The frogs eyes gave me the first clue that it was a frog, very froglike! And it looks like you included two flies, which frogs love to eat. Very creative! Well done. Love, Gramma and PapPap

Max, Gramma found your color choices for the blocks (which provided such a great contrast to the black handprints) and the color choices for the palms of the hands fascinating. Perhaps when we video chat next you can tell me a little about how you decided on the colors. The six high fives look fabulous on the necklace, magnet for my bracelet, and the refrigerator magnet I bought. Love, Gramma

- Joan(fan) on December 9, 2023
I could tell that you made this as soon as I looked it and it was because you were careful to get all the right elements included. The color, the number of legs and your marks of flair. Love it, Max. Love, Gramma
- Joan(fan) on December 9, 2023
This piece is very colorful, and I knew it was the perfect Fall work. I know you put a lot of work into this because the colors and lines were very sharp. You nailed this pumpkin expression. Love, Gramma

Your use of color, all of which stayed beautifully within their lines really made this winter fox stand out. Awesome job, Max. Love, Gramma
