Watercolor is her primary medium with a bit of pen and ink incorporated for emphasis. She loves Southwest Native American culture and has studied it for many years. Most of her work centers on the Native American way of life. Indian ruins such as Mesa Verde in Colorado are one of her favorite subjects along with desert cactus, old buildings and mining towns in Nevada. Native American clay pottery and the intricate designs are one of her best sellers in art shows and galleries.
