“She works in miniature. Hers is an intimist’s vision that does not rely on magnitude to convey the power of reality. A certain portion of her motifs—though not all—make use of that same spatial compression that preoccupied Morandi. So it is fair to call it Morandi-esque. She conveys a passion for her motifs, for the thing seen. It is not a spatial puzzle or conundrum of design. It lives.”
– Maureen Mullarkey
"It is not a spatial puzzle or conundrum of design. It lives."
