work is clear, self-possessed and has a visual seductiveness"

idealism, refinement, and purity."

paintings reflect upon the mainstream of painting since abstract expressionism
of the 1940s."

offer immediate pleasure in carefully orchestrated compositions, meticulous
technique, complexity of shadows and ambiguity of light source."
Suzanne Muchnic, LOS ANGELES TIMES

new paintings define his approach to complex problems of spatial representation
while providing a solution to many of its pictorial dilemmas."
Michael Blaine, ARTWEEK

looking the viewer is provoked into integrating this juxtaposition
of real things and illusions."

paintings make an effective statement about the opposing forces at
work in art making and in life."
Stephen Grossman, ARTWEEK
- "His Painting
thrives on extremes"

whole is the name of the game."
