Horen credits these interactions for sharpening her technical skills as an artist, but also states that she inherited Bar-Am's drive for expressing truth through the medium of art. With time, Horen branched out and her expertise widened under the tutelage of other famous artists such as Chasya Leshinsky, Binyamin Bustiker and Penina Frank. Perhaps her most important professional relationship is with the world renowned artist Yitzhak Holtz, a relationship Horen says continues to influence her direction in the world of art. In addition to Horen's oil paintings of the Holy Land, she also creates parchment sketches, bringing to life biblical and authentic Jewish scenes. At times, she integrates these pieces with biblical verses and Jewish prayers. These parchment sketches combine various artistic techniques such as ink, water color and charcoal sketches, including gilding with 24 carat gold leaves.
