Here are her fun works:

The artist states, “The series ‘Pill Box (S, M, T, W, T, F, S)’ is an installation that reflects the ritual of taking daily prescriptions. Each sculpture is a different color representing a different emotion for every day of the week. This is reflective of your natural mood as it shifts from one day to the next. Using cement as my material, I aim to convey the never-ending cupcake in a ‘sugar coated’ reality.” Note: Medical cross mural is not included with purchase but artist can accommodate if client desires.

Are you coveting a cupcake too?
