View ink-on-paper drawings depicting areas of Loudoun County from 1972 to 1977. Pickens was named Loudoun's 1986 Citizen of the Year for her work in the arts and county planning.

Pickens was also an accomplished oil painter, exhibiting at the Corcoran Museum, Touchstone, and Franz Bader Galleries in Washington, D.C. Her drawings and paintings are in public and private collections nationwide. Her actions as a political activist in Loudoun County were enduring. She convinced the Board of Supervisors to create the first Planning Commission for Loudoun County in 1942, becoming its first Chairman and working on the commission for 21 years. Pickens' efforts to preserve Loudoun/s natural beauty resulted in the restriction of billboards in the County. She was also head of the commission during the construction of Dulles Airport. She founded the Loudoun Sketch Club in 1944, the oldest art club in Loudoun County. She also served as an active member and chairman of the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors Art Advisory Committee when it was established in 1978. These drawings are an important part of the Loudoun County Art Collection. Launched in 1983, the collection features over 200 works of art donated by Loudoun artists and collectors.
