She exhibited her paintings between 1793 and 1811 at the Royal Academy of Arts and between 1809 and 1811 at the British Institution.[2][3] A number of her paintings reside in the collection of, and are on display, at Arlington Court.[4]

A search on familysearch.org showed a Maria Pixell born 18 May 1762, christened 9 July 1762 at Edgbaston, Warwickshire, England, and died 1844 at Kings Norton, Worcestershire. There is not certain that this is her, however, her 1793 exhibits at the RA (Nos. 256 & 258) were views of Edgbaston Park, Warwickshire so it seems likely.
