    • 2015, Marshall E. Gass, Maririlag na mga Hagod ng Brotsa‎, Xlibris Corporation:
      Nagpabagu-bago ang istilo ng pintor na ito dahil sa iba't ibang mga paaralan. Ang mga linya ay malinaw at eksakto. Ang mga kulay ay maingat na hinalo. Makikita mo sa canvas ang maraming sikolohikal, espiritwal at erotikong impormasyon. Kung makikita mo, naroon sa itaas na kanang bahagi ang Lingam at Yoni na ipinakita bilang isang constriction sa ikalabing-apat na bilog at isang simbolo ng puwersa ng pagbibigay-buhay. Maiintindihan ito bilang isang bukas na puerta at isang nakatayong ari ng lalaki bilang tagapagbigay-buhay na puwersa ng mismong si Brahma.
      This painter's style keeps changing because of the different schools. The lines are clear and exact. The colors were carefully mixed. You can see on the canvas the many psychological, spiritual and erotic information. If you can see it, there on the top right area is the Lingam and Yoni that was shown as a constriction on the fourteenth circle and is a symbol of life-giving force. This can be understood as an open door/vulva and an erect male genital as a life-giving force of Brahma himself.
