"DEAR FIONA,
I AM VERY PLEASED TO SEE THE WORK OF YOUR CLEVER STUDENTS AND THEIR INTERPRETATION OF SOME OF MY PAINTINGS. THEY ARE VERY LUCKY TO HAVE YOU AS A TEACHER AND AS THEY GROW OLDER I'M SURE THEIR VISUAL UNDERSTANDING OF THE THINGS AROUND THEM WILL GROW AS WELL. AS YOU KNOW, ART IS SUCH A WONDERFUL OPPORTUNITY FOR PEOPLE OF ALL AGES TO EXPRESS THEMSELVES AND I HAVE NO DOUBT YOUR ENTHUSIASM WILL LAST THEM FOREVER.
MERRY CHRISTMAS,
KEN."
