Her paintings are to be found in various Public Collections including:


·     Ashmolean Museum Oxford,

 In my painting I am very involved with natural forms, e.g., plants, trees, rocks, sea, and water in lakes and waterfalls, portraying form with movement and space and all the natural energy of nature.


The media I use are watercolour and acrylic, often using cut up pieces of my own work as collage. Having been born in Hong Kong and studied at the Slade School I like to exploit Chinese traditional use of the brush and the Oriental use of space combined with a Western individual interpretation of form, light, and colour.
