She is the founder of a new style of painting called Stereographic Dimension. She specializes in commissioned works for her elite clientèle, celebrities and large corporate clients who desire a unique art piece in their art investments. All her works are one of a kind, original art pieces that explore her unique style with color and extreme texture.
COMPOSITION SERIES This series has a more abstract continuity of line, form and color. Her signature weaving that is created with her brush strokes are accentuated in this series. She called this unique style Stereographic Dimension. This textured detail has become most sought after with her work. This contemporary series compliments modern building architecture and design.
MODERN SERIES Her innovative mosaic design in this series has been her signature style. She explains, “There is always a flow of movement in my work through lines and texture. Vibrant colors are used to stimulate emotion and create a visual impact. As well, details are incorporated to be able to see more than what’s there in the picture at first glance. Whether it is hidden words or a detailed composition of people, the result is an effect of colorful mosaic shapes at first glance but if viewed in more detail, you would see an intricate world of new things every time you look at it.”
