April 5 Farrah thank you for sharing your art 
April 6 (name illegible) a statement that needs to be said 
 Bryan powerful imagery beautiful color love the message 
 Michelle I don't go to the library often when I do I always stop by the gallery as a beginner artist it is very helpful to see what the medium looks like in person thank you for making your art accessible and for free at the library it is very important for people to remember artist personal political and subjective don't worry about negative thoughts or comments reactions because they have no intention of helping supporting our positively spreading your message or anyone else's message who feels the same way people who use the library are also homeless on housed and I'm pretty sure the people who saw your are here made sure to ignore and keep their distance from them hope you find a solution you are happy with unfortunately the world forgets and ignores these things when all is right with them so helping his lacking in that department I like the out of focus details it is not necessary to paint them simple shapes and highlights given up understanding of the subject maybe I will try oil again I don't know yet

 illegals get their money illegal immigrants get hotels paint that 
April 19 I visited this branch today specifically to see this exhibit thank you for creating these works and thanks to the library for displaying them it hurts me to pass by people who are suffering worse than me and it hurts to see efforts to help get stopped before they can create meaningful change and immortalizing some of these struggles will hopefully become a footnote history book one day
