“Each painting of Don Artamas is a distillate after a searing process; a destination after a tortuous, feverish journey. It soothes the vexed spirit, with its sophisticated blend: - the deafening clamor of unbridled fervor - employing technique and style seemingly acquired thru the years from a school where the freedom lessons are taught in whispers and spoken only in the language of the soul; yet on the contrary, Don Artamas’ work is focused and disciplined - and utterly graceful!.”
