During this time, she worked for advertising agencies as a advertising illustrator, for newspapers as a satre drafsman and financed her studies in this way and with other commissioned works.

The impressions of this picturesque landscape and of the french “Savoir vivre” are also found in many of her works.
Her painterly expression is very inspired by the impressionistic works of the old master Renoir.
During her various creative phases she has developed her own style. Corpulent women as a mirror of society.
