She constructs her paintings layer by layer using exclusively oils. She uses texture and technique to create a sensation of depth and contrast to bring her objects and people to life. Through colour, she concentrates on beauty and happiness. Colour by its nature can be playful and there is perhaps a childlike quality to a lot of the geometry in her work. In her abstracts, she manipulates and analyse, adding to her works some hidden symbols and allusions. This way, she wants to show the complexity of interrelationships between imagination, reality and its interpretation, in order to heighten the tension between the simplicity of forms and the complexity of ideas behind them.
