Felicia, a native of New York, began her education as an artist at the Art Students League in New York City.

Felicia has been invited to display her work in many juried invitational shows, such as the Gilcrease Art Museum in Tulsa, Oklahoma; the Tucson Museum of Art in Tucson, Arizona; Charles Allis Art Museum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin; the Old West Museum in Cheyenne, Wyoming; the National Arts Club in New York City; Mountain Oyster Club in Tucson, Arizona.  She has won numerous awards and has received national acclaim.  Her work is displayed in prestigious galleries throughout the United States, and in private and corporate collections throughout the world.  She is available for commission work. 

In a 1992 publication/book titled Women Leaders of Colorado, Felicia has been recognized as one of the top women leaders in Colorado.  She completed an artist in residence program, during which she finished a monumental sculpture for Northeast Elementary Public School's courtyard in Parker, Colorado.  In 1995 Felicia was inducted into the National Association of Women  Artists, in New York City.  In June of 2002 Felicia completed a life size bronze fountain of the Cahuilla Indians for the city of La Quinta, California.  Other public life size bronzes are in the market square in Beaver Creek, Colorado.
