Her works are on paper and she usually starts out by pre-wetting. Her paintings can be defined as simple, intimate and away from beautification.
They are neither strictly designed nor totally random. She expresses herself by applying fine art techniques without disregarding suprises water brings naturally. Painting is a mysterious journey for her and it is a way to lure the viewer into the water's magic. Colors dance with each other on all her works. She primarily focuses on flowers, sailing yachts and landscapes which often include distinctive or non-distinctive figures.
