• Renee Phillips, Art Critic, New York May 2002. - " Regina Noakes weaves visual delights of music and dance. A terrain of smooth, undulating human forms resembles and interweaves with nature. Their lyrical shapes echo one another in sublime harmony. For instance, sinewy branches of a tree are analogous to long limbs that curl around a belly or stretch upward toward the sky. The artist is an observer of human nature and the language of the body. Rhythmic compositions of strong colors and bold contrast unfold the ebb and flow of the exuberant figure releasing a feeling of nervous tension. The artist is an engaging storyteller. Her enchanted world evokes an essential underlying profound reality that questions issues of morality, love, security, and faith. Her dramas raise questions and curiosity that provide passages in which to seek our individual answers ".
  
  " Viewing life as an aesthetic experience, Regina translates memories and observations onto her canvases. There are stories behind most of these paintings, and drama in the universals of companionship, love, age and acquiescence. A quiet sadness, even an air if gravity, sometimes occupies her figures, yet others exhibit light and joy. Several of her large - scale figurative paintings have references to herself and to her daughter. A point of focus sometimes is the Doll, as a repository and reflection of human experiences, sometimes almost human, and more besides. In a unique, figurative style that is poetic, spiritual and sometimes quirky, Regina relies on the contribution of the viewer to translate each work into his or her own personal account ".
