Reviews
"In the hands of a lesser artist, celebrity caricatures can appear garish and even grotesque -- irreverent and offensive to both the star and their fans. Jota Leal, however, has a passion and affinity for his subjects that allows him to capture their essence in a manner that is both playful and insightful." -- Brett Maly, art appraiser and The History Channel's Pawn Stars art expert, "In the hands of a lesser artist, celebrity caricatures can appear garish and even grotesque — irreverent and offensive to both the star and their fans.
