She has exhibited in both countries including one-man shows, has works in private collections in Britain and U.S.A. as well as Scandinavia and has paintings purchased by art societies, public bodies and offices.

In her recent paintings references to nature are still present, but form, pattern, texture and atmosphere are foremost. She works in oil, acrylic and mixed media.
