After moving to Alexandria, Virginia, she joined the Art League Association at the Torpedo Factory Art Center in 1995 and took various classes and workshops there with well-known Washington, D.C. area artists until 2001. Her oil paintings were exhibited and sold in juried shows at the Torpedo Factory Art Center, including the American Landscape show in 1998 juried by Eliza Rathbone, Chief Curator of The Phillips Collection in Washington. One of her “plein air” paintings is in the National Park Service‘s collection. After moving to Rhinebeck, NY, she joined the Woodstock Artists Association in 2002 where she participated in juried exhibits in oil and watercolor. She is now painting mostly in watercolor and is taking classes with Betsy Jacaruso at the Courtyard, Rhinebeck, NY.

Because she has traveled extensively all over the world , she gets her inspiration from places she visits as well as from the Hudson Valley where she now resides.
