Greetings to you wonderfully talented, creative altered book artists! Your
teacher shared your work with our Yahoo Altered Book group and I wanted to let
you know how delighted I was to see the rich work you're doing! These are
amazing first efforts and I hope your fire is lit to continue to explore the
depths of this art form. How lucky you are to have a teacher who involves you in
this kind of exploration. I wish that I'd been so lucky when I was your
age...when I had to 'color' in between the lines! Keep up the great work!

The artwork done by your students is FANTASTIC. I see a lot of Mrs. Kramer's
ideas which you have expanded on and made your own. I like the Op Art the best
and will have my students try this project. Thanks for sharing your work on the

students in what they were creating. You are doing an excellent job in creating

Greetings! I have perused your website and I love the work you do with your
students. I have been asked to teach a class of 31, ninth grade Creative Art
students. Probably 60% of them chose Art because they did not want to take a
second language. Honestly, those 60% did not want Art either, so at times, my
art class is a "gong show" of pathetic behaviours and lacklustre effort at best.
Your samples looked awesome and I am hoping I can use some of them to produce
similar awesome results. Perhaps they will find them as interesting visually as
I did. Care to swing "up" to Canada to teach my class?! Can I email you back
with some of my students completed work?

I stumbled upon your page while looking for some new ideas. What wonderful art
you get from your students! It is truly beautiful and so well done. Their
shading and detail is wonderful. I can't get my students to be so detailed. What
is your class size? Is art an elective or part of their rotation? I hope to use
some of your ideas in my new classes for the next nine weeks.
