She exhibited and thrice won top prizes at the Nitten and Shin-Bunten. In 1974 she became a member of The Creative Painting Society, Soga-kai in 1974. Many museums in Japan house her works, with others in private collections.
Hirota is largely credited for introducing the nude as art to the mainstream in Japan. Nudes were dismissed with disdain before that time. While Hirota was actively painting for some years prior, she completed her first nude piece, aptly titled Nude in 1951.
Female subjects were the primary focus of her work and many of them in traditional Japanese dress with vibrant colors. From the 1970s until her death in 1990, she produced many works that were reproduced in art books, including one dedicated to only her works.
She enjoyed painting maiko as well, and her improving talent and skill was evident in her work. Hirota loved to paint women like maiko as independent humans, not as accessories or as if they belonged to men. Any women she painted looks very attractive, vivacious and proud.
She continued to paint up until a few days before her passing in 1990.
