What are the artist's influences?
Her painted works have a close tie to Surrealist painters, Mexican
Muralists and Abstract artists. Her work not only draws from a Western

to paint create scroll paintings after taking courses in Chinese
and Japanese watercolor painting. Humor and Irony also play a role
in her work as she analyzes her relationship to herself and others
as she lives each day. For her internalized pieces, the artist reaches
deeply within her emotional self just as Frida Kahlo and Salvador
Dali had in their painted works.
