CRITIQUES AND REVIEWS

• 2008 California State Fair Fine Art Competition juror’s statement, Yoshio Taylor:  “I kept gravitating towards Adopt A Starving Artist Vending Machine.  It is a humorous, intriguing, and fascinating piece, and the more I paid attention to the details of the work, the more I was intrigued by it.  I consider it a very successful work of art.”

• 2005:  Scott Shields, Chief Curator at the Sacramento Crocker Fine Art Museum, said of my work during a lecture at Shasta College, “I noticed at least one student who has found their voice.  I don’t know if this student is a genius or completely crazy.”

• 2004: THE LANCE, Redding, California: Interview

• 2003: Redding Record Searchlight, Redding, California: Interview

• 2003: California State Fair Brochure, Sacramento:  Juror Kelvin Curry, Judge and Printmaker at San Jose State, California: “Reveal III utilizes incredible tones and organic shapes.  Printmaking at its best, and the framing is excellent.”

• 2002: Sacramento Bee, California, Victoria Dalkey, Bee Art Corespondent: Also compelling and inventive is an arrangement of rectangles and squares in skin tones by Jane Magarigal of Lakehead in Shasta County.  Titled “Self Portrait: Skin Deep,” its parts are labeled with words denoting physical and intellectual properties, the passage of time and the realm of the spiritual.  It’s a fascinating self-portrait that turns the skin inside out to examine deeper issues.”
