She has had numerous private and public commissions including The Budworths, owners of the Lady Magazine, SENSE charity, Dr John Inge the Bishop of Worcester, and Frank Southam, the Sword Bearer of Worcester. She has been on Sky Arts Portrait Artist of the year 2021 and had the wonderful opportunity to paint Sir Trevor McDonald, who chose her portrait to take home as his personal favourite.

In 2022 Francesca gained London representation with Signet Contemporary Art.
