Painting is her passion. She sees it as a bridge between her conscious self and unconscious self. She paints on wood-panels and make sculptures out of tree roots. She likes to use natural tree materials because of their inspiring smell and unique texture and avoids using chemical materials.  She makes her own paints by using natural materials such as onion skin, beetroot, walnut, and tree leaves.
