"The imagery in my paintings is a reflection of my fantasy world. In some of my paintings I use elements of collage and sculpture. My linoleum prints are taken from some of my paintings, where I at times inject some humor.

My abstract monoprints have strong geometric forms and dynamic color contrasts. Rich in texture, they feature many subtle gradations of color within each hue. Color as abstract definition redirects the line of vision back to form. I am enthusiastic about all kinds of art. The primary issue is always high quality."
Wyona Diskin, February 2000
