"Kyra has a whimsical touch to all of her drawings and often uses pencil crayon to add details and colour. She can immerse herself in her artwork and uses her illustration techniques to add to her stories and bookmaking. She was inspired by Van Gogh and by Nature to include swirls, bursts of colour and patterns in her artmaking." writes Heather Korlak, Kyra's teacher.​
