Maria uses herself as the main inspiration in her paintings where she displays her different sides, emotions, and state of mind.

She also uses influences from the surroundings, different places, and Current ongoing social political situations. She often makes her art in smaller series, of typical three paintings, with different themes such as motherhood, womanly shapes, Corona and sex.

She works on smaller details in the paintings to be discovered when you have looked at the canvas more than once, repeating figures in her paintings that show the state of mind, for example the goldfish. She thinks that art should have elements of humor and depth and it is up to the viewer what they focus on and what it means to them.

Her four children are her biggest critics. She has painted since a young age but has lifted her painting to a new level in the past three years when she rediscovered the art form. She then started by painting a canvas with three women representing her three different personalities -Maria as the mother, as the business woman and the sexual adventurer.
