Reviews

"Panakal's work breathes new life into a field that has literally seen it all. He imagines worlds viewed with eyes that are post-human, sensitive to alien spectra. He weaves stories of electric techno-magic slippery to lazy comprehension. Ultimately, he throws away the rules of speculative art and instead hand carves a new lexicon of sci-art-fiction. If you want something shockingly, gracefully new, look no further; Panakal delivers."
- Chris O'Neal


"Allen is one of those artists that has a world inside of him that we all need to see."
- Scott Fischer 


“It was a delight to receive Allen Panakal’s book Ancient Ones when it arrived after its success publishing campaign .. vivid and panoramic, clearly a work of passion. Kudos and well done!”
-Rebecca Guay

"Allen has distinguished himself amongst his peers by creating vibrant and dynamic painting style. And his world-building style expands on the science fiction genre in new and inspiring ways."
— Jon Sideriadis
