Her paintings and drawings can be seen around the region at commercial galleries and museums, and in private homes everywhere in the US. Jimpsie’s interest is in contemporary realism, and the great narrative traditions in art of the Renaissance and Impressionist periods. She began her career as a stained-glass artist and muralist while living in California and Florida. Her later work as a painter of textiles earned her a listing in Who’s Who in California.
