Eilshemius is an artist of true talent.
Henri Matisse

As Rousseau of the French Spirit painted in France, does Eilshemius of the American spirit paint in America, with the childlike self - faith of a Blake.
Marcel Duchamp

I am the true artist who shirks to represent mere commonplace matter, but upholds the dictum of Diamonides that a painting should be a silent poem.
Louis M. Eilshemius, The Mahatma

To look upon Burliuk's paintings, means: We become small children. We become part of his charming public. We become children-enjoying the fresh colors, which seem eternally wet and which attract our fingers...But, we also become Sages, mystically inclined. We gaze at the hidden meaning of his paintings, history opens before our eyes.
Shea Tenenbaun
