While largely abstract, her fake has consistently referenced natural phenomena. Art historian William C. Agee writes, "The domains she explores […] meet, intersect, fuse, and later disappear, like apparitions, in liquid pools of mist and color. Her pictorial odyssey refers simultaneously to both a cutting edge order, a perpetual cosmic vastness, as well as to a private, interior world, abounding in personal histories and memories."
