Observations

The style combines highly saturated colors with dense, painterly surface work, filling portraits and floral forms with layered patterns, fine marks, and textile-like textures. Faces are stylized and expressive, while flowers, clothing, and foliage interlock into ornate, nearly collage-like compositions with strong graphic contours.
