I mentioned this in one of your other artwork that you show depth so weil in your drawings, there's definitely an artist in you!

Drake. your art shows really well the effect of distance on a drawn image, quite impressive, keep it up!

Drake, you really are an artist. Congratulations! Aunt Noreen

Drake… This is so good. Aunt Noreen Keep it up. Hugs

I love this Drake. The use of colour, perspective and design are eye catching. Keep up the creativity.

Well done, Drake, nice job on the perspective. It's a fun scene, too, a bit cartoony.

Your perspective is great Drake, the structures diminsh just a they should as they get smaller the further the eye can see. Looks like an architect drew it!

Hey, Drake, that's looking good, pretty realistic!

I'm not sure I successfully sent you congratulations on your very fine art work yesterday. ??This drawing immediately touched my heart. My great grandkids enjoy your work which I ordered and i have on the fridge. Keep it up. Ps. My faves are charcoal drawings, and black and white photos.

Drake I am excited to see so much detail in this animal grid drawing. You have successfully created the illusion of 3-dimensional form. You are a budding artist. It warms my heart.

Hi Drake. It's me again, your Canadian aunt Noreen sending congratulations for this beautiful gift of art which I can enjoy. Moreover, I love charcoal art, and this one is a gem. Keep up the great work. Hugs, N

Well done sketch, great rendition of a horse, your artwork is getting better & better all the time!

Wow! This is amazing. I hope to see it in action one day. ??

Wow, now they’ve included construction to your art work, well done!(

Wow, now they’ve included construction to your art work, well done!(

Drake, you are such a gifted artist. Clearly another artist in the family! Love to see your creative mind at work.

Drake this is most interesting to see the Japanese fish print method. You have captured the gyotaku print. I have never heard or seen this style of print making. Well done!

Quite an interesting layout, the aqua colour makes a good contrast with the black, would look great on a bedspread!

Great looking fish, those fins are so well defined, they show up so well, especially the pink ones! You’ll have to fill me in Drake on how you managed that.

I love your creative mind Drake. You inspire me to get busy and be creative too. I have all the materials I just need the time, patience and see what happens. Keep up the great work.

I love this most interesting Adinka relief printing method using two items that hold special interest to you Drake. I would venture to say it reminds me of centre ice at a game with a hockey stick and the second print looks like the Canadian and American flags.

Your artwork is very impressive Drake. What I've seen from your first years, I just love your artistic mind, your colors, and this latest one with the Canadian flag, touched my heart. Your art shows you are talented and you love what you are doing. Much affection sent.

Most interesting piece of art. You have me thinking the black lines and coloured circles are significant along with the centre star.

You truly are gifted Mandrake. In more ways than one. Hugs, Aunt Noreen

"UP or DOWN" ? or ¿. The only way to go Drake. Very proud of you. Aunt Noreen

Great job Drake, using one point perspective and creating your colourful name. Wow, I didn’t learn this technique till I was in high school. I am impressed.

That is some cool lettering Drake, love it!

great sketching, you have the dimensions quite right. whose hands were posing for you? I like it!

I recognize these buildings in Cleveland. Great job Drake,recreating the architecture in these stunning buildings. You have set a happy mood too with the bright blue sky and sun.

I gather that this piece is actually a painting, looks like it’s been weaved, very intricate, love it!

Our nephew Drake is such an up and coming artist! Impressive creations there Drake! Hugs, Aunt Nicole & Uncle Terry

Hey, I love that! What a great mix of colours in such a very intricate moulding

I love the bright colours and your emoji is really cute. Great job!

I just love the colours and design in this artwork.

Great hockey picture of you in action Drake. Your skates are on fire. Go Barons, go.

Excellent

I love the hockey picture. Colours are great although you know I am partial to blue and white. Love seeing your work ,

Great depiction of skates in motion, right on! Must be CCM skates, advertising shown on the boards. The detailing of those skates is very well done, love it.

Excellent job Buddy, I love seeing your artwork! I used to teach grade 7 and 8 Art on a rotary schedule! I can appreciate your hard work!

The center looks like an eye peeking through the maze! Lines & designs are so accurate, no smugging at all, love it.

Hi Drake, a very impressive piece of work. Look forward to discussing it with you when next we connect.

Drake I love the line and design creativity. Beautiful work!??

Love your artistic flair Drake! Good use of colour and symmetry! I enjoy seeing your art work! Love Papa!

Drake I love the drip style artwork. It is most creative and you have captured the concept in your colourful masterpiece.

Interesting artwork! Keep up the creativity!??

Great work Drake, good use of colours and I love your creativity! Good work Buddy!

First of all you mastered the hair, love the hairline along the forehead. If the Canadian & American flags were drawn freehand, perfect rendition there! Of course you also included your trademark hockey stick & puck but this time you added a very well dawn baseball. Great effort Drake!!

I love all of the detail you’ve used Drake! Your use of realism is wonderful ...this looks like you!

Well done Drake, I am admiring your creativity!

A bowl of lettuce? Looks real enough to eat. Continue the good work Drake!

This is an outstanding self portrait. I love the use of colour and design. I like the added symbols too with the flags and your own hockey team. Well done Drake!

Way out there Man - like way out in space!! Bet you could really raise a puck out there.....

Good rendition of space, among the planets is the speedy rocket ship ....even a hockey stick with a puck made it up there, love it!

I love this. Well done Drake.

Now I’m really undecided, I have so many favourites in Your artwork but I think at the moment that this latest one is my most favourite! Of course I expect that you’ll be submitting more pieces to make choosing the best still more difficult.

Wow! This one is really cool. I like your use of lines and designs. I am interested to hear from you about what you learned about Australian Aboriginal art. I will send you an email about it!

Fine painting! I love the colour and interesting detail.

Great pinch pot critters, Mandrake. hugs, Nana

I really like these clay figures, mother & her young I think. They appear so gentle with those big soft looking eyes! Your choice of greyish colour suits them perfectly.

These two make me smile!

Mandrake - love your artwork! What great colour and action in this one. Makes me think of Sundridge :)

Good job Buddy, I really like your use of colour!

I love this detail in this work of art. You understand Pablo Picasso's style and how wonderful you are learning about this famous artist. Nana

I love the use of shape and colors! Very cool. I have the most talented nephew!

cool collage, you can tell that this kid knows some music. The piano symbols are right on. Drake, you did a great job with the layout of the cutouts, glad to see that you threw in a bit of green in there!

A very happy turkey, Drake.

I love all the detail in this interesting, colourful jungle scene, Drake.

Well done, Drake! I love your Van Gogh inspired piece. I agree with Nana - this looks a bit like Hogwarts:)
