She exhibited in several venues with other artists and by herself and moved to London in 2008.
Among her sources of inspiration are graphic novels of all kind and early 20th century art movements, such as Impressionism & Les fauves.
What strike first in the paintings are the vibrating colors that don't follow the rules of natural hues but only work together following the harmony of lines.
It's sometimes close to the art group called Les Fauves that's characterized by brilliant and clashing colors. If a skin tone needs to be green to fit with the general composition, so be it!
The main theme is portraits of close friends and family, where the look holds the whole painting.
The cartoons focus on her environment, studying people's relationships or even spying on them when they're not looking!
It gives an insight of what it's like to be a foreigner in one of the most multicultural cities of our times.
