extensively with the Royal Hibernian Academy between 1894 and 1947. She painted mainly in watercolour and was

a regular contributor to the Watercolour Society of Ireland over a period of 50 years. She is known for her scenes

of surrounding landscape and countryside and particularly favoured the sea, mist and twilight, and was also well

regarded for her flower studies. She continued painting up until her death in her 80’s and her work can be found in

the Cork Municipal collection and numerous private collections.
