"His teeming canvasses barely contain  the warped    buildings, gears, faces and religious symbols that spring  from his imagination."

--Veronica Pasfield, Detroit Monthly



"This work is a masterful blend of background perspective in its urban landscape references; a measured touch of abstraction in the wild abandon of its palette..."

--John Carlos Cantu, The Ann Arbor News
