”...excellent training in composition, controlling space & forms, and other visual skills.”

”...the best natural talent I have ever seen”

“DANA DiPASQUALE (is one of my favorite artists) for creating original, imaginative, and often striking photographic images; or as often as not, images that, before studying them, may appear to be just empty everyday chance snapshots. But much more, for incorporating their titles as integral and stimulating parts of a dramatic action, involving the past, and or the present and or the future. Usually these pregnant one-liners evidently express a thought of a solitary figure, either male or female. Most often the title expresses an emotional situation and or a coming, going, or gone intimate relationship. Humor is virtually absent, for common as these questions or statements may be, most always they evoke and involve a crucial stage or aspect between two people, or one solitary person and the universe. But more and more, no figure at all is seen! Are the titles still only one person’s thoughts or one utterance in an ongoing dialogue? I find myself irresistibly drawn into the situations: “Yes, I know that!” Often it concerns questions or assertions concerning personal freedom, and those thoughts I share. Thus, so far as I know (admittedly not very far), Dana has pretty much created, by herself, a mixed-media form of art, involving, merging, integrating, unifying both a static graphic aspect and an intellectual utterance to create dynamic, dramatic works, indubitably worthy works of art.”

“Dana DiPasquale photographs like a painter, unrestricted by the camera.”

“Dana DiPasquale is … a good choice, given her steadfast honesty and keen eye for the elusive messages that swirl around us in the most obvious of places. For a photographer faced with the gamut of techno gizmos that are shaping the future of image making, she is steadfast in her detailed eye for the simple magic that is so easily overlooked. Like someone mentioned above, she paints with a camera, and certainly deserves the accolades of her peers.”
