New York Times, art critic Ken Johnson describes Don Porcella’s paintings as, “…images like Sasquatch lounging in a pink recliner by a wilderness lake and a mobile home trailer on fire are embodied in a thick, sensuously waxy medium.” Drawing from his own imagery of the suburban, and his interest in folk art, cartoons, and science fiction, Porcella’s work allows the subjective and strange to penetrate humorous representations of a wildly imaginative reality.

Art Business.com review
"Stealing the show at this summer group miscellany is Don Porcella's eminently entertaining mixed media and pipe cleaner installation of two people standing waste-deep in a pool of water. Excellent in quality, composition, workmanship, and commitment to doing it right. This dude's got a future-- not quite sure how it's gonna manifest, but he's got one." http://www.artbusiness.com/1open/firstth0808.html
