Brian's started to write poetry.

I should be a writer when I grow up...

Library sections; Fiction, non-fiction and do-it-yourself.

"Abstract Expressionism is definitely right for me at this stage of my career."

'I love your playing....especially when you stop!'

Child drawing fish from life by putting his head in a pond.

'Can you tell me what I've written? I can't read!'

"I know its hard to believe right now, Lawrence, but some day you'll thank me for asking you to punctuate your sentences correctly."

'My 'What I Did Over The Weekend' report is about my hunting a 17,000 pound moose, deep inside Canada.Some or all of this report has been fictionalized for dramatic purposes.'

'With my parents out of the house, I can finally start my long awaited mural project.'

Great works I plan to complete during the lockdown.

" 'How I Spent My Summer Vacation,' a treatment by Todd Mozelle, Grade Three."

"Someday you'll see my work in the employee break room at the Met."

'Who I played in Summer Stock.'

"... And his piano teacher says that he definitely has Van Gough's ear for music."

'We're pushing our do-it-yourself kit, today, sir - a ream of paper and a half-dozen pencils.'

"I sincerely hope you learned a lesson this time, Mark. Drawing cartoons on your homework will get you nowhere in life."

'I have a feeling one day when he grows up he'll be an artist of some kind.'

'Do I have to be creative?'

How to draw a martian!

Mum has a bad judgement day - Well OK, you can take it to your room as long as you play it quietly.

Creative Baby.

'All good things must come to an end.'

"This is an excellent story, Doris, so far."

'For God's sake give me some angst, how will I ever write a misery memoir?'

'Look. Billy Curry did a nude!'

"There's the pressure from my public, naturally, as well as the pressure from my publisher, my agent, and all that. But the real pressure comes from that devil inside that makes me different from other men, that makes me a writer. But, of course, you know all about pressure, grinding out those papers at Sarah Lawrence."

"Isn't it obvious? I'm writing the great American graphic novel."

No animals were harmed during the writing of this book report....

'What's the fist thing you're going to think of when your brain is fully formed?'
