The whole painting, including water, trees and bushes are painting using only blue colour. In some paintings she uses very few colours, sometimes two colours, sometimes two or three colours to complete the creation.
The colours used in the background of painting ‘In sorrow’ brings out the feeling of sadness ‘helplessness’ is a painting of an elderly woman which was done during the Tsunami disaster.
