Her style is simple, minimalistic, yet expressive, she is especially renowned for her work in fashion, children's books, and unique portraits. “For as long as I remember, I have been drawing and making up stories. /.../ I have kept quite a few of my earliest efforts, and in my recent work I see a return to my childhood sketches. Isn’t Teddy and his friend a bit like something a child would draw? /.../ I believe my stories have been greatly influenced by my own childhood, and by the times in which I were a child. But I also have the ambition to bring our own age, the ever-present Now in which we find ourselves, into my work.”
