From 1930-42 she worked in London and studied under the noted engraver Iain Macnab at the Grosvenor School of Modern Art. In 1942 she moved to St Andrews, Fife, and in 1946 joined her sister as part-time lecturer at Dundee College of Art. She retired in 1957 to care for her elderly mother but continued to paint. By then the sisters had established the printmaking department there. Showed RSA, RSW and NS both of which she was a member and SSWA and had two-man shows with her sister at Cork Street Gallery (London) and English Speaking Union Gallery, Edinburgh. McKenzie, who was especially influenced by the work of Braque, did railway posters and other ephemera, all marked with exquisite sense of design and apt colour. Seven examples of her work are held in UK public collections.
