A Vancouver art collector, W. Mathews, says:  "… I see the Vincent influence, but your art evokes the brushwork of  Soutine and I see  a distinct passionate style influenced by nature… This man's art is going to find a huge public appreciation in the future."

An Art critic in Argentina, Ricardo César Lescano Grosso said the following about his work: "His paintings radiate light from a hidden painful world, creating a natural atmosphere of intimacy. Combining thousands of colors in constant dynamism, sky, water and vegetation seem grouped to dance to the beat of your pulse, full of feelings and passions. His art is called "Actualism Art" as a testimony of a key reality that the author reflects in his work.”
