Her artwork has developed over the years from simple childhood drawings to more complex compositions which combine figurative and abstract images in a humorous way.
She says of her "Funny Fine Art"...
"I hope my ability to conjure up the absurd, the ridiculous, the comic in paintings will induce people to laugh at the images and also think about the content which usually deals with the perversity of the human condition. My work is a synthesis of humor and fine art that is sown from the depths of comic outrageousness, satirical observation and mild misanthropy. If Matisse had, 'the sun in his belly', I sometimes feel I have a banana peel permanently attached to my shoe. Matisse said that he wanted his paintings to become a 'comfortable easy armchair for the viewer.' I want my work to be the whoopee cushion under that armchair."
