環境的變遷讓她在大溶爐裡溶入、沉殿，祭出一個屬於自己象徵性的意象、半抽象形式，形色之中透露著原始母性的協調與圓融，讓圓融的線條自由的遊走於 色塊之間，並在各式造形之間散發著個人的哲思。曾創作四個膾炙人口的系列:生命系列、女人系列、宗教系列及白鷺鷥系列等，近年又加上顏面系列。其中女人系 列 “花之夢”於1999年獲選第五屆國際新藝繪畫比賽特別獎、 “女人2006”入選2007年法國藝術家沙龍，並在巴黎大皇宮展出。 “泳”入選2008年法國秋季沙龍、 “祈禱的手”入選2009年法國秋季沙龍並受邀在巴黎大皇宮展出。她的女人系列之所以吸引人，不在於寫實，而在於對女人的理解與詮釋。而色塊與線條的組 合，則形塑出女人不可言喻的神秘，這樣的表達方式卻正好給予觀賞者有著極大的想像空間與對白。2012年獲選為Whittier市年度展出藝術家、同年亦 入選Open Studio Artist，作品“Formless”獲印出版。2013年作品“Happiness, Appreciation”獲選印製在洛杉磯亞裔文化傳統活動月曆。曾任文化節、傳統週美展策劃總監、台美藝術協會會長、新藝畫會會長、太平洋時報藝文 （白鴒鷥）版主編。
