In addition to digital painting, she incorporates various tools such as watercolors, colored pencils, and pens into her own style. The artist creates a unique atmosphere in each work by using various tools in her warm and everyday sensibility paintings.

She is inspired to create moments that comfort her even when the day comes when she is hated by the world and has no choice. She hopes to convey the power she has been healed to the audience as well.
