She later took her talents to the mountains of North Carolina where she taught watercolor and exhibited in Brevard, Hendersonville, and several other areas of the state. Along with her husband, Ed, she supported the art community of Brevard for a number of years through their gallery, "The Hang Up" on Main Street in downtown Brevard.
