Quotes
“She has an ability to create such interesting and hauntingly beautiful designs.”

“There is an ethereal atmosphere at Doris Dillon’s exhibit which emerges as ‘fine art’...In her transparent acrylic paintings, the symbolism is fantasy, creating an abstraction of exotic and lyrical creatures from Dillon’s world of imagination.”
John Simoni, (Syndicated) Art Critic
