Her works draw on her many life experiences here in America and in her native Colombia. She left her native country in mid 1991 and began to exhibit in the USA after getting involved with Women in the Arts - New Haven and Women's Caucus for Arts - CT Chapter. She has shown at the United Nations, Tepper Galleries, and Art Expo in New York as well as many of the galleries in the Greater New Haven area. The artist has directed a mural project for the New Haven Public Schools, and received a grant and residency through the CT. Commission on the Arts.
