“Ann Diener’s large gouache and colored pencil drawings merge swirling abstraction with stuttering figuration, implying a nonlinear narrative of furious growth, epic tumult and inescapable decay.  They send your eye on a riotous journey like riding inside a tornado, where leaves, hats, trees, and farmland fly by and wonder and devastation struggle for supremacy” -Christopher Knight, LA Times
