As a painter and visual artist she expressed herself in different media - oil, acrylic, installation, combined techniques and video. However, last nine years her work is almost exclusively dedicated to exploration of watercolor. Her very first watercolor paintings early on in her career earned her a special prize at prestigious national competition. Years later she found that this technique that is fast drying, often full with unpredictability yet precise and unmerciful to mistakes or corrections, match her own character, explosive expression and gesture, drawing using color and unquenched thirst for realizing ideas to the inviting white surface instantly.
