-From Albert Heraux, N.Y.: " Si vous cherchez une nouvelle vision du monde dans la peinture moderne, si vous pensez que le vingt-et-unième siècle n'a pas encore trouvé sa voie dans le domaine artistique, embrassez Total Art de Michel Doret qui transpose dans ses tableaux, sa culture, son érudition et une nouvelle conception de la peinture contemporaine".
-From Carolina(Brazil): "I do hope that summer brings your art all the shining progress of your talent. If winter has been harsh, just wear the coat of to feel warm again and appreciate the fruits that spring will bring. Just like in the fall, let the applauses of the audience fall on you, like leaves."

-Published by the literary/artistic French review Les Amis de Thalie on the cover page: my painting Sculpture Design and others inside. Hors série 2001.
-Rev. R.E.: "...même si je ne suis plus capable de décrypter, de comprende tes créations artistiques, tu vas le savoir, elles me permettent de rêver...", June 2001
-Bayla Victoria: "...I visited your exhibit in Rockville Center and enjoyed it. They
(the paintings) are whimsical and colorful,
a bit like Miro and Klee. I am looking forward to seeing more." N.Y. 8/21/2001
-Oliver Osaki: " I went to see your paintings at the Elmont Public Library on Thursday(3/14/02). I must congratulate you on your efforts and courage. I can equally say that I admired the paintings, without, of course, passing any judgments since such an art form is a revelation of the artist's inner-self and only he, the artist, can render any appropriate commentary. I dare state that surrealistic art form continues to challenge the mind; the subconscious field is massive and those who can play in this field, though quite subjective, have the opportunity to enrich others -that is exactly how I can describe your paintings."
-Tom Sena, Curator, The Bern Seiderman Gallery at the Lynbrook High School, LI, N.Y.:" Your work proved to be very stimulating and thought-provoking for all who had a chance to view it. It was indeed a huge success! We hope to work with you again in the future...."
-Ellen Goldstein:" I went to Borders on March 28th to see your exhibit in the cafe. It was marvelous. Beautifully hung and made quite an impact....I am pleased that you are a part of Rotationals Arts this year..."
