“Having absorbed the total effect from a distance, it is fascinating to examine his work up close, knowing it is done with a brush and not a spray gun.” (Midwest Art Magazine, April 1976) Claudia Roberts Trevithick
“Wit, irony and humor are recurrent themes of Jose Luis Quinones’ Crushed Orange immense photorealist canvas of a crushed can of Orange Crush soda. In his hands, a brand name becomes a physical object, rendered with painstaking, meticulous realism.” (Pepperdine University Magazine, August 2012)
