She regularly organises solo exhibitions and is a laureate of international art and design competitions. Her artistic style is diverse – she creates both abstract and figurative compositions, often incorporating various elements to enhance the texture and dimensionality of her paintings. Her works are characterised by vibrant colours, purity of form, and clarity of composition. Behind each painting lies emotion and a story. The titles given by the artist also play an important role, drawing the viewer closer to the hidden essence of the artwork. The abstract composition painted in cheerful colours. The painting is created of rhythmically arranged drop-shaped coloured dabs in a circle, which concentrate in the center as a kind of energy, creating a lively vibration and optical illusion of movement. The painting is saturated with vitality and an intuitive idea of the cosmic order, humanity, and love of the soul in every human being. /// Artist's signature and dating on the lower left side of the painting.
