She gained national recognition for her paintings in Portraiture and later in Seascapes in the published article by the Australian Artist Magazine in August 2006, 2009. Teaching Workshops (internationally and overseas) and numerous published articles since then have given her recognition for her work both in Australia and overseas. Her artwork has achieved prize winning awards and is held in private collections both in Australia and Overseas. Although her art has been influenced by many well known artists over many years her current work is more influenced by the overseas tuition gained from world renowned American artists Sally Strand, Clayton J Beck III and the influence of Richard Schmid.
