"The New York-based artist's magnificent semi-abstract landscapes keep to a strictly limited palette of predominantly complementary colors. Its compelling contrasts nonetheless create a sense of total harmony which captures our imagination by creating the arresting aura of a world full and fulfilled without the presence of any extraneous life-forms.....

Seen in the flesh, her paintings are enriched by the tactile information she creates by juxtaposed brushwork styles. Sections of her paintings have the light, creamy quality of Fragonard's fluffy clouds, and other areas have an atmospheric intensity akin to that of Frederic Edwin Church's "Twilight" landscapes....

Standing before her massive canvases (the paintings) became as alluring as fairy-tale landscape. The differences in paint quality and character created a feeling of penetrability, and the electric contrasts between sections are as inviting as a portal into a warm, welcoming alternate world."

"Her paintings convey the permanent evolution of natural space into a dream space, more beautiful than its counterpart... Smith's artwork represents a bridge of reconciliation between the outer world, the sum of our sensory experiences, and the inner world, that of our mind and emotions."
