She is an active member of the Suburban Rochester Art Group and the Beach Art Center in Indian Rocks Beach, Florida. Her work is exhibited in various art shows throughout Western and Central New York. One of her paintings is currently displayed in the Hamlin Historical Museum in Hamlin, New York.
"Creating a piece of art is an all-consuming endeavor. I am grateful that I raised my children and retired before pursuing my new career. I find the creative process exciting and challenging, requiring continual growth and learning. Each blank canvas or paper provides an open door to my imagination and an opportunity for adventure."
