ifacts, either for private use or window displays, is part of her artistic nature which she first expressed at an early age. Pieces of wood, roots, sand, dried plants, twigs, pebbles, fabric combined with metal โcopper, steel- on wooden surfaces, mirrors or canvas, painted in acrylic colors or in their natural state are the main characteristics of her work which is constantly evolving and adjusting according to the special characteristics of the place where the works will be exhibited, since they constitute the finishing touch on its composition and decoration. The design of handmade jewelry is an extension of her creative side as she regards the final touch on a woman's garment as a necessary ornament on a piece of furniture.

Simplicity and complexity, monochromy and polychromy, romanticism and rock are characteristic of her work which applies on every type of woman.
