Career

Her paintings were featured prominently on episodes of the TV show The Celebrity Apprentice . [2] [4] Her paintings have appeared in posters. [5] [6] She was represented by New Era in 2002 [3] and exclusively by Grand Image Limited in 2003 and 2005. [7] [8] [9] [10] Her paintings are abstract renditions of outdoor natural scenes including dragonflies, ponies, and flowers. [6] She commented: "An important element in my work is beauty. I believe that concept or idea can interest the viewer as long as the artist is sensitive to aesthetic." [11] She uses a variety of inks and pigments to mix color and light into different natural and organic forms. [3] She uses rollers and spray cans as well as brushes.

In 2008, her paintings appeared in seven locations on the set of the NBC TV show The Celebrity Apprentice , including a "huge abstract in The Donald's boardroom that was right behind everyone as they got fired."
