She often uses vivid, expressive colors in her paintings." The Spokesman-Review described the colors and simplified forms in her paintings as being "reminiscent of the early 20th-century Fauve movement". Jan Ingram in the Anchorage Daily News of January 30, 1994 wrote "These paintings are experimental and fun".
