James, This is beautiful. I love the combination of colors you used. The shading and the black outlining are perfect in creating drama between the gourde and the other subjects. Bravo James!!!! Love, Great Aunt Ilse -- Ilse

Ho, ho, ho, who do I see there? I like your antlers and your fuzzy red nose. Nice job lining up your face with the reindeer. Looking forward to seeing more of your art work. Love, Great Aunt Ilse -- Ilse

James, What an impressive artwork. Are those human figures on the left - with the sun behind them casting shadows in front of them? Are they looking onto a challenging event in the middle keeping them from their path to their home on the right? Or is that a gun on the top right waiting for their arrival? So much to think about. What a great thought provoking artwork. I love it!!! -- Great Aunt Ilse

James, The placement of the brown strips is great. Is it a boat? I see a face on the front peeking over the blue waters. Are those two people on the boat? Mystery! Are those stairs to take us up to the lighthouse or watch tower? Great work! Love, Great Aunt Ilse -- Ilse

James, I love the beautiful colors that you used in the background of this artwork. I really like the way you used the black to define the action in front of the beautiful colors. The mass of black body is about to enter or just left the cut away shapes of the large black rectangles. Cool! Great job! Love, Great Aunt Ilse -- Ilse

James, What a fascinating picture. I see a picture within a picture with in a picture. I see a bird with very large feathers in the center. It looks like its feet are with in another bird's body and it also looks like the big feathered bird is hugging a long billed bird - possibly a duck to the left of the picture. To the right, I see a red cow with its head at the top of the page. Isn't fun to see how your painting can inspire people to think of many things. Your art reminds me of Salvador Dali. Great job!

James, I love the color you used in your artwork. The angles are bring one to a point where your eyes are drawn out to another point of action. It makes one wonder what the stories are behind each point of action. Did you use charcoal draw with? This is a very creative piece of art. Great job! Love, Great Aunt Ilse -- Ilse

James. WOW!!! I love this one. I feel like I am flying in a plane looking down at very, very tall buildings. I like the angles and the colors. I look forward to seeing more of your artworks. Thanks for sharing! Love, Great Aunt Ilse -- Ilse

James, I like this artwork because it makes me think of different stories going on. The arrows draws me to the right and makes me wonder what is the character doing at the top right? Is he trying to catch all the all the beautiful flowers and objects that will be coming his way or will he run down towards them? Great use of colors! Love, Great Aunt Ilse -- Ilse

James, Awesome picture! Look at all the action you have going on. I like the warrior on the side and it makes me think and wonder where is the main subject going? I look forward to seeing more. Love, Great Aunt Ilse -- Ilse

James, What a great artwork! I stared at it a long time and I see a dark face in the middle and is that a person wearing a green sweater flipping with skis around the "white snow mouth"? I can't help but be pulled into the center, is it a cave? I love this picture because it makes one think of all the possible things that one can see in this artwork. Thanks for sharing this with me. Love, Great Aunt Ilse -- Ilse
