In her paintings, the color is dominant and she is away from concern of style. Also, interpretation of
nature and action in this process constitutes the main theme of her paintings. In her works, you can see that concerns about the future and footprints of past are described intensively. The artist who throws a light on the future with her unique style integrates her excitements with unity of the subject. The nature is presented in her canvas with acrid emotion.
