An internationally known painter, Tykie is an ardent preservationist. She believes in nature and admires its creatures. Her painting, "Lookout" depicting an Alaskan wolf was one of 200 selected from 2,600 American and Canadian submissions for inclusion in the 1991 Arts for the Parks representing birds of the Everglades National Park. She also made top 200 in 1996 and 1999. A painting of a Florida panther was commissioned and published by Lloyd Ellison Graphics, Jupiter Fl. with all proceeds benefiting the Palm Beach Zoo of West Palm Beach. For a better understanding of bird and animal anatomy, Tykie is an avid wood carver. She has been a founding signature member of Miniature Artists of America since 1985.
