_______________________________________________________ HALINA DOMANSKI of Yuba City, California is a master at the collage technique. Quite successful is her arrangement called "I Like You Old Roseville" with juxtaposed parts of buildings and signs such as Welcome and Historic Route with street numbers,a U.S. Flag and street clock.The gold,yellow,red-orange and green color changes are perfectly placed.Another fine piece is "Two Loveable Cities" with the obvious ladder centrally located with other parts of the city carefully placed with the open space in the upper left.Also "Wonderful Capitol City" works quite well in the warm tonality with the openness at the top.

Roberto V. Illa M.D. _______________________________________________________ HALINA DOMANSKI of Yuba City,California has some very special works."Chinese Wisdom" is rich in warm colors and ambitious textural treatment with the word partner giving the idea of interrelationships."The Wheel of Fortune" is a masterful accomplishment of abstraction that gives a play of depth and surface with a kind of energy felt in the wheel motif repeated giving a kind of implied kineticism.
