In addition, she exhibited at the NJ Watercolor Society, the Essex Watercolor Society, and the Exhibitors' Co-op of South Orange, NJ, all the
while receiving awards and recognition for her work.
Having moved to Fairhope, AL, in 2014, she joined the Kiln Studio and resumed making pottery and began doing figurative sculpture in stoneware. She has exhibited her pieces in many juried shows at the Eastern Shore Art Center in Fairhope, including a solo show of painting and sculpture in June and July, 2020.
