Follow Twinkle on Instagram here “With the fine skills of an old master she paints
her fabulous paintings…” Wiener Zeitung (Vienna Daily) “Twinkle’s experimental fusion of oil and chemicals to create the grim fairy-tale landscape in which humanity is rejected, lost and possibly found again worked in response to what Picasso started when he made Guernica – paintings that resonate, tell the story to remind and warn.”
