"I wanted to tell you how moved I was by your Alter Series piece, Revealed #1. It was on the back cover of the University of San Francisco Law School magazine. As a USF graduate who has provided legal aid for domestic violence survivors for most of my career, I was delighted to see USF supporting La Casa de las Madres by exhibiting such beautiful art. I'm imagining that as an artist you let your work go out in to the world and may never know how it affects others, so I wanted to let you know that I found your piece beautiful and powerful. I hope that this work brings you peace as well. Thank you for sharing your journey."

"I first met Kathy Fujii-Oka, artist extraordinaire, when she signed up for a doll-making workshop that I presented under the auspices of the Asian Pacific Islander Cultural Center in San Francisco. Since that time I have witnessed Kathy's voracious appetite for creating within a spiritual embrace and a cultural context. There's a quietness to Kathy's work, which mixes with a pouring out of emotions tempered with skill and talent. Kathy enriches the Northern California art world with her presence, her elegance, and visual eloquence."

"The paintings are invigorating... I love the contrast in energies created between the vertical lines and spiral shapes. Also, thanks for sharing about your inner process, healing and spiritual insight."

"Kathy's artwork is filled with elegant and persuasive metaphors that provoke, inspire and reveal secrets, memories and treasures."
