On her bio she says that her work "incorporates the inherent beauty of interpreting both the known and the unknown." So basically she's all about sci fi stuff like aliens, ghosts, and hypnotism.
Really, the thing that initially drew me to her work, even before the aliens, is that her figures look just like my drawing style from middle school. They have huge eyes and relatively large heads. They always have pointy small chins and teeny tiny noses, and the hair visually takes up half the head. I used to draw exactly like this! It's crazy to see someone else painting in this style.
When I drew this way it was because I was trying to draw anime style, but I couldn't let go of the formula I'd learned in elementary school for how to draw a face, so this was my in between realism and anime. It makes me wonder how she arrived at this style.
Also I'd just like to note that some of these compositions are really creative and interesting. I like the way she uses unusual formats and sometimes incorporates the framing.
