She often creates time to explore and experiment with different fabric techniques shush as; screen printing, ausbrenner, textile foil printing & silk painting. She recently started working with porcelain.

Barbara is very dedicated and passionate about her work. While working on a project she grows into to the assignment and she is able to create weird fantasy worlds. She depends a lot on her intuition and her work can be ironic. The illustrations are mainly drawn by hand but the adobe Illustrator skills are well developed, the computer is used the as drawing equipment.

Barbara is a kind of chameleon: She can design in many different styles, translates every kind concept into suitable images. Inventing ways to treat or destroy the graphics to make them look authentic, organic is one of her strong points. She creates concepts and adores freedom.
