She works in a multiple of mediums and sizes, even including some very tiny miniatures. Her work is collected world-wide. She has won awards in notable exhibitions, and been juried into numerous art shows. During her life she has picked up some odd areas to apply her art - rubber stamp design, set design, jewellery design, instant lottery ticket design, murals, billboards, photography, movie theatre advertising, graphic design, pop-corn cans, book covers, magazine illustration, and even a cow pat pad. She started painting 'seriously' with a few works in 1998 when a friend wanted to see some of her artwork and she had none to show. So she set about 'proving herself as an artist'.
