« «They Who Aspire» exemplifies the union of these visual inspirations; the Impressionistic approach to classical concepts is a delight to observe and, upon close analyses, an element of Expressionism can be detected in the luxurious use of her medium. Bold and emotive brush strokes, as well as an indelible essence of Romanticism in the soft and tender attention that the artist gifts to her subjects, enhances the composition with a profound level of academic complexity. Her nuanced fusion of style masterfully reflects the movement of the cantering horses and the powerful tides of the sea by invoking references to Édouard Manet, Rosa Bonheur and Eugène Delacroix throughout her percipient exploration of the fluidity of water and glory of wildlife».
