In 2013, she moved to an art-based community in Silver City,
NM, another area with
mountains, trails, and
inspiring vistas. Each
new space,
landscape, and
connection with
eclectic artists have
pushed her art in new
directions.
In 2019, she received
the Edwina Milner
Women in the Arts
Award and in March
2020, launched a
retrospective at the
Francis McCray
Gallery of
Contemporary Art at
Western New Mexico
University, Silver City.
NM. Her studio backs
up to the hills and
wilderness, where the
ravens and deer visit
her daily.
