“Alok's presentation... was an appropriate opening session. It  stirred me, awakened my sensibilities, and I knew the entire weekend would be  worthwhile.... with his single brushstroke moving a single drop of water, and  by simply observing, and by his still presence of not knowing, that  single brushstroke... became a powerful statement of movement-- the essential  movement of art and soul. I loved it!"                     Gail Thomas, founder of the Dallas Institute of Humanities

“Alok seizes the energies of the moment and transforms them into a beautiful calligraphic painting. Through preparation, emptiness and 'not-knowing' he senses what wants to emerge. His paintbrushes move quickly and intuitively over the paper. The result is stunning and magical and the finished painting embraces many layers to be discovered when contemplated. That, essentially, is 'artful creation'”.
