She describes her style as….
If I have to describe my style of drawing, I think its a mix of collages, hand and digital manipulation, watercolor and soft pastels. Sometimes I like to draw faceless models,especially for runway projects - this gives a mystery touch and don't distract the idea of the whole outfit.I have got one favorite quote and its a sort of inspiration,usually when I am drawing my art works: " Beauty is the promise of happiness" (Stendhal).
