To stand before a Leon Oks painting is to gain entrance into God’s spiritual
world filled with visions, revelation and mystery.
Each painting touches a deeply embedded emotional cord within the viewer,
as one experiences the gift of a master painter who has been given over
to the hand of God. The world is yet to know the gift it is surely to receive
through the artistry of Leon Oks. How honored one must feel to meet this
quiet humble man who has such powerful emotions streaming through his
spirit in color and form.
His dreams and visions must haunt him, tearing him emotionally until they
are released upon the canvas, to be exorcised through color. One must
admire the suffering Leon must endure to achieve the “call” of God through
the hands of a master artist, and the result is mesmerizing, when one stands
in front of Leon’s finished work. (Paula C Huffman)
