She is interested in painting an encounter; whether that’s between two or more animals or an animal encountering a situation that will become a defining moment for it. She paints these animals as metaphorical representations of people in her life. She characterizes these people as these animals by an intensive contemplative study of how a certain animal behaves and then and how the specific person reacted in a certain situation. How they responded and reacted to that situation, and then how they acted.
