Keeping the vital energy captured in the black stone drawing, usually enhanced with watercolour and acrylic.
"I like to imagine that my characters are always ready to step out of the frame. My line liberates the details so that only the essential remains... I make the body elastic, jubilant and powerful, even in the most dramatic moments of its state.
