dotIn Micropublishing News reviewer James Cavuoto wrote "David Glynn, a New York City based multimedia artist, might cringe if someone compared him to Michelangelo. But Glynn's recent work bears more than a little resemblance to 'The Fall of Man' from the Sistine Chapel ceiling..."

dot-In The New York Times Roberta Hershenson, describing a painting commision of Glynn's wrote "...The result is a series of images of a long-haired, discreetly topless young woman tumbling dreamily through the deep..."
