Under 1950-talet tillhörde hon en konstnärskoloni vid sjön Racken i Värmland som var en yngre avläggare till den ursprungliga Rackstadsgruppen. Tillsammans med sin man och Birgitta Nilzén ställde hon ut i Säffle 1954 och separat ställde hon bland annat ut i Degerfors 1966.

Hennes textilkonst består av gobelinvävnader, tygtryck, ryor och trasmattor med fantasifulla mönster medan bildkonsten består av stilleben och landskapsskildringar där hon ofta har hämtat motiven från Hallandskusten.
