Bold, rich storytelling with a strong sense of purpose. Abstract Expressionism is how she uses color as her subject, texture as her message or statement, and scale as her conviction. She has total disregard for the "traditional" stylistic progression, never wanting to limit her range of ideas and materials. Being an artist is like searching for something you didn't know you were looking for and finding it.

Her use of deep hues and thick broad strokes represents the life experiences of many cultures, all viewed through an abstract spectrum. America was outside her front door, but inside was a home of old traditions, styles, and languages that continue even today. This tapestry of lifestyles cannot be divided into separate threads, but together form what makes Glina’s art so compelling, with a strength of purpose that floods the senses..
