Her art is full of earth colors, etched markings and unusual textures. She incorporates silk flowers, modeling clay, beads and various types of paper, cloth, metals and foils in her paintings. Her process involves applying layers and layers of color and texture to create an intricate and complex statement. The influence of her Indian heritage is often apparent in her work. Many of her paintings are around Indian motifs or deities, primarily Paisley and Ganesha. Her florals and abstract landscapes are her tribute to the immense beauty of nature. The textural element of art is fundamental to almost all her art. She often works on multiple panels and canvases.
