She has been described as “an artist of many dimensions, because her work is as varied as life as artist, mother, and educator.” Her canvases have been described as “colorful, creative, exciting,” and “strong, sensitive, and powerful.” One art critic from The News Journal, Wilmington, DE, reviewed a solo show and concluded, “Of pivotal importance in both her floral and landscape paintings is the simple fact that Mrs. Breslin is genuinely inspired by her surroundings. Her work shines as this enthusiasm is tempered by the technical skill, at her command.”
Her oils caught the attention of another critic who wrote: “…she is excellent at depicting mists, a very difficult thing to do on canvas. Many of her paintings are done in White Clay Creek Valley, north of Newark (DE) and there is a fine triptych of hills and snow in the area entitled ‘Winter the Wedge’. I found a number of her paintings downright poetic!”
