hi robert!
your teacher wrote and told me what you were up to with the sea life project. she said she is going to send me some samples of the kids' work.. i hope she sends one of yours when she does!
you can go to my website and print off anything you like. go here: http://www.fishartista.com/gallery/fish_index.htm , you can click on the fish you like and "right click" your mouse and then print them off. you might need to ask a grown up for help.
if this doesn't work, i will email you some fish pictures. just let me know.
thanks!!
kim rody, fishartista

Hi Kim
Robert told me he was talking to you via email - he will be in my class next year. We have 4 classes who have been inspired by your work, and our school has just put together an art exhibition to display all our artwork to parents and governors. I have the digital camera on my chair to remind me to take pictures to send to you! We are in our last week of term and, as always, have run out of time, but I hope that we will be able to compose a class email to you in the next couple of days & send you the pictures.
Watch this space!!
Best wishes,
Sue L.

robert, i have been in the bahamas diving and swimming every day, and not doing much painting, but filling my head with ideas for when i'm back in my studio next week. i'll be painting like a mad woman! i'll be sure and send you them as soon as i finish them!
i saw a little turtle today on the reef.. he was chomping on some sea lettuce until he saw us next to him, then he took off in a hurry!
i really like the turtles, too! also, there are thousands of starfish here. you would love it.
cya,
kim
