A former art teacher, Mo is self-taught but accomplished in oils, watercolours and acrylics. She is an exhibiting member of the Lincolnshire Artists Society, Norwich and Norfolk Art Circle, and the Welland Valley Art Society.
She has exhibited her oil paintings at the Mall Galleries with the ROI, NEAC and Society of Women Artists.
