4) She was a painter, teacher, diplomat and art promoter and a founding member of the Salon de la Plastica Mexicana. Her artistic development was to strive
5) to find her own style and she succeeded in creating a number of novelties, such as figures that eventually disappeared, ceding importance to textures and color.
6) She felt that the use of color best expressed her emotions, with her work best noted for its use of color, considered to be one of Mexico Great Coloristas. Her later work became more abstract.
