In Paris, the artist was fascinated by the beauty of nature and wildlife. Her favourite subjects were still lifes, hunting scenes, images of fish, animals and people in the fantastic landscape. A series of works called "Hunting", united by coloring and a picturesque-volumetric interpretation of images, is dedicated to the eternal theme of "human and nature." The images are placed in the background formed by dense green vegetation, covering the surface with a continious pattern. The artist captures the action rapidly occurring. She uses long strokes that convey the impetuosity of animals, birds, and human movements. A talented master uses a dark outline, smoothly defining the characters. A large number of green shades enhance the effect of space depth in which heroes live. The work is performed in a free picturesque and decorative manner.
