She has been featured in local magazines and newspapers and most recently in the nationally published Studios magazine. Her art has been displayed in restaurants, doctors’ offices and for the past seven years has been represented by Eureka Springs Fine Art Gal-lery in Eureka Springs, Ark.
She has entered her art in local and regional art shows and has won many awards. Her most prized is from the nationally judged Fiberworks show in Oklahoma City.
She has taught her technique on a limited basis in Arkansas, Oklahoma and Missouri.
