Born in 1936 in Santa Fe, New Mexico, Roberts has had a life-long fascination with the history and life of the Pueblo Indians which inspired her to become an artist.She studied art at the Colorado Fine Art Center in Colorado Springs from 1955 to 1957 and at the University of New Mexico from 1957 to 1959.  Most influential on her work were her teachers  at the University of New Mexico, abstract expressionist Elaine de Kooning, impressionist Randall Davey, Taos artist Kenneth Adams, and Santa Fe artist Jozef Bakos.

Guided by her Native American heritage (she is part Cherokee) and by a fascination for color, she created her internationally exhibited Blanket series of pastel paintings.  Large  canvases are inhabited by images of blanketed Indian women seen from the back in geometric patterns in vivid, bold colors.
