    "Dr. Picart's pieces are experiments in the exploitation of light and shadow as well as form and texture. Her attention to fine detail reveals her earlier scientific background as a biologist and pre-medical student, with its heavy stress on precision and accuracy. On the other hand, her sensitivity to the creation of concept, mood, atmosphere and emotion are reflective of her former studies in the humanities, as well as her background as a philosopher . . . The Philippine Embassy is indeed happy to see Dr. Picart's work duly appreciated for their artistic value and reflection of the many talents of the Filipino woman."

      "Her study of biology during her undergraduate days gave her a surgeon's precision allowing her to unearth social illness as well as to depict nature's awesomeness . . . Her pen and ink paintings . . . capture subtle moments of the powerful kick of a ballerina and the glamour of a group dance, which are remnants of her two decades of ballroom dance, another surprise in her career. She seems to have developed a unique mastery in stippling technique or pointillism, extensively used by neo-impressionist painters like Georges Seurat . . . By using three or four layers in her pastels, her fingers created a unique harmony of blue and green, two colors which are extensively employed in her pastels. Serenity and mobility co-exist in her pastel paintings as rough sea waves hit seaside rocks."

        "Dr. Picart is an ideal ballroom dance instructor, from her gentle patience to her positive energy in making each ballroom dance vivacious. I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Picart as her dance student for 3 years, learning smooth (waltz, foxtrot, tango, etc.), rhythm (salsa, mambo, cha cha, swing, etc.), and some cabaret elements. Dr. Picart taught me these styles from the perspective of social dancing, competition, and public performance. Dr. Picart is adept in breaking complex patterns into simple elements for anyone to learn. She understands how to put herself in the mental state of the student and see things from his/her perspective, enabling the student to learn. She excels in her conveying the zest or grace of a dance, making her student feel how fun and emotive ballroom dancing can be. Her knowledge of the dances is extensive. Were my geographical location such that I could continue to work with her as dance instructor, I would do so in a heartbeat. The patterns she has taught me remain some of my favorites that I use to this day with my competition partner and with my wife."

          "I have been blessed with meeting Caroline Picart and experiencing the magnificent artwork she does that reflects who she is, a heavenly being, an angel. Caroline is a smart, classy, beautiful, talented woman who is an inspiration to me and I'm sure to many women. I just recently found out she is a dancer and am very impressed with her accomplishments and comprehend some of the art work she does because it reflects who she is and the artistry she does. She is an impressive, gifted woman who uses her experience with dance in her art. I love her art because it speaks to me as a worshipper and a lover of God. Thank you, Caroline, for sharing the gifts God has given you."

              "I haven’t met a such talented woman in my entire life! She is sensitive, loving and caring; also smart ,dedicated and disciplined. She trains her body as she does her mind. She might look petite but she is huge in every aspect of life! I am an awe of what she has accomplished and I am an honored to get to know her."

                "I particularly like Caroline’s mixed media piece ‘Evanescence’. It has a film-noir quality to it, with the shadowy, realistic but dreamlike figure emerging from the background, and I like its darkness. Suits my mood most (meaning all) of the time."

                  "Caroline is a kind, genuine, and gifted friend. One of her many gifts and talents is her art. Her art has a lot of rich meaning and symbolism. Colors tend to be dark and there are a lot of shadows. She covers a wide range of subject matter. I appreciate her talents that she brings to her art and to her work."

                    "The joy of viewing the work of someone both athletic and artistic is that you can feel the burst energy in the images. The twists and turns of color bring life and warmth to Ms. Picart's work. Having her art on the wall is like a dance for your senses."

                      "I do not profess to be an art critic or expert in the field, but I know when a piece of art makes me think or feel. The colors in this beautiful tree and its mirror image remind me of all the joy in my life. I smile every time I walk past it."

                              "My husband and I own several Kay Picart pieces. One of my favorites is Dance Abandonment (pictured), a joyful explosion of movement and color. It makes me happy just to look at it. I have had the pleasure of speaking with Kay in person about her work. Her ability to translate weighty topics into beautiful, thought-provoking works of art is remarkable."
