"chairs... :D i love it!"

"These intriguing and amazing collages are all about 'balance.' Wonderful!"

"wild and bursting with expressions of freedom. definitely reminiscent to the imagery of "tilting at windmills"."

"great....."

"Looks like something that the author Paul Bunyan would paint very creative thought. Excellent Work."

"If you look at the artist's website, I like the second and fifth (from the left) images in the "Martyrs" section."

"Surreal and mythic! Best in context with Pinon's other work... riding chairs is definitely like tilting at windmills! ;) Wonderful!"

"I love collage as an art form. It can add dimension & depth to a piece, each layer saying something new, supporting the main theme. In the hands of an artist, this 'medium' can go well beyond elementary or middle school craft, to add new meaning to an idea we may not have thought much about before. The best art makes us think, visually pleasing or not. I find this work interesting. Do I like it? I'm not sure yet, but I do find it interesting..."

"I have received the artist of the day on google for over a year and have been impressed only a few times. I love the thought and insight of what a cowboy in the city and or corporate america might feel. I would love to see more!!!!"

"great job, i like this... i'm just a bit puzzled about the chairs but aside from that great job.... really like them..."
