Good or bad? Is this a trick question? Clearly, her level of skill with her chosen medium is hard to rival. She's amazingly skilled. Her choice of subject isn't exactly a deep or interesting one, but that's opinion, and is up for debate. However, it seems that she does it for a paycheck, so I can forgive her. I'd love to see something that uses her imagination, though. Art is nothing without imagination.

I agree with Archem on this one
I just looked at everything on her website, and I found it all pretty boring
But she is very very good with chalk pastel
Even though I don't like the look of them
If she showed us something that she just came up with that is some imagined creature, or something like that, I'll be impressed
