Two of her paintings, called Women of the Fields, are inspired by Filipino women from Bulacan and their role in growing rice. Her painting is also inspired by the national flower of the Philippines, Sampaguita. The overlapping lines in her paintings depict basket weaving.

Ambassador Jamoralin also met with the owner and President Director of Isa Art Gallery, Ms. Deborah Iskandar. ISA Art is an art gallery and art consultancy firm based in Jakarta, which exhibits the works of Ms. Cameron. (END)
