She has also taken many workshops. Her work has been in juried and group shows throughout New York, Vermont, Pennsylvania, and Massachusetts and has been recognized with many awards; the most notable, The Pulsifer Award in the Adirondacks National Exhibition of American Watercolors in Old Forge, new York . She was also Juried "Best Watercolor" by acclaimed critic, Clement Greenberg, in the Canastota Canal Museum Annual Art Exhibit in Canastota, New York.



She has been very active during her affiliations, as a Signature Member of the Pennsylvania Watercolor Society, a member of The Central New York Watercolor Society, a founder and Co-chairperson of The Cazenovia Watercolor Society. She is currently a member of the Newburyport Art Association.
