          Review  
          His scenes take on the allure of a fanciful fabric of forms which reveals 
          the intimate meaning of nature. Remaining faithful to the shape of the 
          subject, Dosen defines it through the color value of form, thus achieving 
          a calm but fluid and poetically-expressed atmosphere, an ambient, of 
          Surrealistic space in which light lavishly showers the subject.
