Quotes from others about the person
Kenneth Baker: "Using no forms except monochrome panels, Appleby must struggle often with the potential problem of repetition. But she achieves a freshness and distinctness that persuade a viewer that she means each one. It is as if she has learned to translate energy of intent directly into radiance of color."
