[2][3][4][5] Early in her career a New York critic called her paintings "coherent" and "deeply unified,"[6] and after her death the art historian, Lloyd Goodrich, wrote that "her landscapes, with their sense of nature's life, their freshness and delicacy, and their unostentatious skill, were pervaded with a lyrical poetry of a very personal kind.

[7] At the League her instructors were Kimon Nicolaïdes, Kenneth Hayes Miller, and Guy Pène du Bois.

[8][9] On completing her art studies she participated in shows held in both Manhattan and Manchester, Vermont.

[15][note 5] In the succeeding years of the 1930s Meyer regularly contributed paintings to exhibitions in Manhattan and Manchester.

[note 6] Early in 1935 she showed at a gallery run by the National Association of Women Artists in a group of former League students that included Dean Fausett, Horace Day, Fairfield Porter, and Elizabeth Nottingham[24][note 7] and later that year showed again in the annual exhibition held by Southern Vermont artists.
