In the early 1970’s all the Pearson’s had moved to Houston, Texas.

She learned the art of painting and became quite good. She enjoyed the art community and made many trips, workshops, shows, friends, and visited many galleries and museums.   She searched for landscapes and scenes that inspired her to put them on canvas. She toured Texas roads and towns and collected pictures and postcards of prospective material.

She also enjoyed square dancing. She loved the dresses and dancing and travelling to other clubs, cities, and states. There were many performances and lifelong friends created.
