Her art was influenced by Cézanne. She painted in a manner that respected Cézanne's ideas of logical composition, simple tonality, solidity of volume, and distinct separation of planes. While Matisse represented the reflective and rationalized aspects in the group, Tirman embodied a more spontaneous and instinctive style.

In 1915 she participated at the Exhibition of French and Belgian Art Panama–Pacific International Exposition.[13] In 1919 she was working on illustrations of La Gerbe periodical in Woodcut technique[14] together with Paul Signac,[15] Henri Ottmann and other painters.[16] In 1920, Tirman exhibited at the Gallery Marcel Bernheim together with Henri Manguin, Henri Ottmann and others.[17]
Since 1920s Henriette Tirman exhibited at the annual Salon des Tuileries[18][19] in Paris.
In 1933 she took part in Salon de Echanges. At the same time, in accompany with her friend Sonia Lewitska (1880-1937),[20] she helps André Fau and Francis Thieck in room decoration suggesting services of painters from her closest circle: Raoul Dufy, André Lhote, André Hellé and Jean Marchand. Thereby she supported her friends in tough times of economic crisis in the country.[21]
Also as Othon Friesz[22] she was part of group of artists called Artistes de ce Temps[23] and exhibited at the Petit Palais in 1935.[24]
In 1937, Henriette Tirman with friends creates in her house (Paris, 22 rue de l'Yvette) the Society of Friends Sonia Lewitska, which organized in 1938 two retrospective exhibitions of the artist in the Gallery Sagot - Le Garrec.[25][26]
