Oil and knife combine sculpt her images from a material that is , at the same time, biting and incisive, charnel and sensual.

Resolutely inscribed in her epoch, she is an accomplished artist ; 20 years of artistic expression explain the maturity of her work and the perfect mastery of her art. She lives and paints in Paris near Montmartre; shows and sells her work in Europe, in Canada and in the United States.
