She has been always inspired by Gustav Klimt, who was also decorator and painter. Dreja Novak places powerful emphasis on colours, beauty and emotions in hers works specially seen in eyes of portraits or fictitious personalities. She comes to canvas with a desire to make a beautiful painting based on given idea, philosophy or simple story, with no interest in competing with contemporaries, preferring instead to set hers own goals. Her style is to bring classical drawing, as are portraits, and selected aspects of modern art to produce fantastic place and magical story.
