After 15 years of being a professional artist, she has met thousands of people during the arts and crafts shows she partakes in and through private events . She spent some time in a small village of South Egypt, where she was introduced to Nubian and Arabic designs. She also applies some of the traditional Indian Mogul patterns, but her favorite henna disigns are inspired by 1930's art noveau's vine work.
