Her most unusual work is what she calls "Interactive Conceptual " projects.These projects typically involve large numbers of people working together on a creation of an educational nature such as "A Valentine For The Earth", a multi-media ecology art sculpture designed for Ecomedia in DC in 1993 in a collaboration with a sculptor, and also recorded as a tv program. In 2006 she had a one-woman art exhibit, Global Warning, in Memphis.
In addition to painting, Ms. Francis produced a number of cable tv programs on the arts in Merrifield, Virginia during the timeframe of 1989 - 1996. She placed art of about sixty artists on the set of the program Metropolitan Magazine, and then hosted and interviewed
artists and community leaders on Heart of the Matter.
