In impressionism, she has won awards at shows at the Brown County Art Guild, T.C. Steele paint-outs, Sycamore Land Trust juried show and others. She was Artist-in-Residence at the T.C. Steele State Historic Site during the spring Studio and Garden Tour in 2009. She has been juried into the prestigious Indiana Artisan project. She and her studios have been featured in several local publications and she is slated to be a featured artist in the upcoming book “Artists of Indiana.” She has done commissioned abstract and pastel work and loves to work with interior designers to provide art that makes an interior space come together.
