Artwork
[edit]Her artwork consists mainly of oil paintings and outdoor murals depicting close-ups of fruit like pomegranates, peaches, figs, kiwi, and citrus fruits. It captures macro details of fresh fruit cut open when ripe.[2] It has been described by Signet Contemporary Art as 'intimate, surprising, enigmatic, and bold as hell.'[3][non-primary source needed]
