Though abstract, there is often a reference to landscape and the natural world, characterised by a free and gestural application of paint. Colour and its emotional effect is paramount. Influences on her work include memory, music, (she is a highly trained musician), poetry, landscape both rural and urban, abstract expressionism.
She often has no preconceived ideas at the start of a new work, but allows the work to evolve until the final stages of decision and organisation.
Her aim is to create a personal space, one that others might enter and respond to in their own way.
