Brian Swinyard	This is a delightful collage Joan of rusted abstracts, each of which is a picture worth exploring in its own right. I love the arrangement within the overall frame and the range of colours and textures. I wondered whether the top two images in the first column on the left are too similar and needed to be physically separated or the colour of one of them changed in Photoshop.
Brian Duchin	An abstract at its best.  Each image stands on its own.  Excellent creative image.  I wouldn’t change a thing.
Barrie Bieler	This looks like the Andy Worhol of junked cars ! It works pretty well for me, suggest the white frame along the outer perimeter be a bit wider.
Rick Perkowski	I don’t know if your image should be in the MOMA, but I would like to have it displayed in my living room.  I especially like panels two, three, and four in row three.  Red is the common color throughout most of the panels giving the image cohesiveness.  Some might say that the image lacks a center of interest, but I feel that the panels give the viewer a reason to linger and appreciate the image.  Very creative.  Very well done.
Anne Swearman	I must plead ignorance, as I do not know what MOMA is! Maybe a gallery?? The colours are great, and I like the unusual abstract patterns. Wondered about the possibilities of reducing the saturation of cyans so that the bright colours had a little less competition?  Afterthought, does the last two letters MA stand for modern art?
Tim Koverman	I like the composite of rust on old paint.
