Callie, your artist's statement is wonderful! It gives me more insight on how you created your artwork. Your detailed explanations give me an excellent description of what the project is all about. Painting Wrigley from two different perspectives and combining them into one picture was not an easy concept but you did a fantastic job and I'm proud of you! I can't wait to see your next project! Love, Grandma xoxoxo...

Hi Callie, I love your quarter circle art project and your very detailed explanation of how you created "Intergalactic". The way you created Outerspace was perfect! Using the toothbrush was an excellent idea along with speckled color which added a lot of dimension to your work. The quarter circle planet earth with watercolor base and layers of paint was brilliant! Your first seventh grade artwork and explanation are outstanding! Love, Grandma xoxoxo...

Hi Callie, This must be your last art project from 6th grade. I love your perspective on the Princeton Reunions. I know this was a very special weekend. Great use of colors! I like the way you captured the building. Was this a part of the Meg Whitman addition to Princeton? Love, Grandma xoxoxo...

Callie, I loved reading your thoughtful comments on the 3-D pencil you created. Cardboard is an excellent media to work with. I think the slight imperfections make it realistic. Great work! I look forward to your next artwork. Love. Grandma xoxoxo...

Hi Callie, You did a wonderful job on your pencil from the eraser to the lead tip. It was very realistic! Did you use cardboard to shape it? The painting was perfect! I am looking forward to finding out how you made it. Very nice job Callie. Love, Grandma xoxoxo...

Cute idea!

Hi Callie, I'm sending you a second comment on the eye because Your artist's statement was extremely thoughtful and it gave me a lot more insight to your artwork. I agree the jewels do add a lot more color and depth to the work. Learning something new as you create is the most important thing. Nice work! Love, Grandma xoxoxo...

Hi Callie, Congratulations on another beautiful piece of artwork. Not only does this look like an eye but your title the Red Sea is perfect. I can't wait to see your latest pottery with all its beautiful stones. Love, Grandma xoxoxo...

Callie, your artwork keeps getting better and better! Your "Yin Yang" mixed media self portrait is very interesting and I can't wait to talk to you about it. I love how you used the shading pencils, Sharpie and chalk. I'm looking forward to seeing all your 6th grade artwork! Love, Grandma

Cute

Callie, Excellent job on your Dystopia/ Utopia art project. The living room is perfect setting for showing the contrast between the two societies.
