"Cai Vail's work is simultaneously delicate and brutal, pairing lush, sensitive shading with violent subject matter. Vail creates scenes of painful beauty, treading a rich line between what draws us in and what frightens us." - Juxtapoz.com
“What seperates Vail artisically is a visual tension between organic shapes and graphic compositions that shouldn’t work, but do.” - Hi Fructose Magazine
