For 43 years she taught and was Director of Art at Illinois Woman's College, later MacMurray College, in Jacksonville, Illinois. She managed to combine effective teaching with a successful painting career of her own. She sketched every summer from 1910 to 1917 with Charles Woodbury in Ogunguit, Maine, and beginning 1923, she traveled widely in the West during summers and sabbaticals, to paint the landscapes and pueblos of Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, California, etc. She was deaf but overcame that handicap to do what was described as "miles of paintings".
