She will indeed meet Coltrane, Miles Davis, and Dave Brubeck by frequenting the Village Vanguard and the Blue Note.

Music will during all her career play an important part.

From 1967 she will exhibit in Suzanne de Coninck's gallery and then she will have numerous exhibitions in Europe: Paris, Lyon, Venice, Rome, Terni, Deinze etc.

In 1980 after many exhibitions around the world, she was chosen by Jean-Dominique Rey to represent France in Alexandria's International Biennale. She won the first Prize, Arnoldo Pomodoro got the Great Prize.
