  This series evolved from her last exhibition titled "Night" which was a series of single panel 12 inch square paintings and some larger format horizontal pieces. The new work shifts to a diptych format, juxtaposing night and day images of the same scene, and a major increase in scale. These paintings are about light and space more than traditional landscapes. The work lacks a horizon line thus disconnecting the viewer from a sense of land and focusing the attention on the effect of light and mood. Though realistic in appearance they are more in the spirit of Mark Rothko's work, presenting questions of morality and transformation from two perspectives.
