The artistic style is raw rather than refined, using a mix of acrylics, spray, pen, and liquid ink. Continuously exploring mediums and technics, painting on old disgarded frames for screen printing, glass and plexiglass as well as more traditional canvases.
Her art was initially almost exclusively created after late nights out - painting crammed into a small closet. What started out as a creative outlet, using paint to process and deal with nightly madness and meetings, quickly grew into a full-time obsession.
