She is widely known for her luminous landscapes that feature her masterful use of color, light, mood, atmosphere, and composition. These works reflect a deep connection to unspoiled nature. Her still life paintings blend an impressionistic flair with classical realism influenced by her love of the Old Masters’ works.
