Artist Bio...
I just really love making jewelry!
I love bright pops of color, the luminous glow of gemstones and natural pearls, the shimmer and shine of silver and gold metals that have been worked and burnished by hand.
I fabricate with all of my materials and many of the tools I use are customized with modifications that get me the look I want. Small details and deep, rich textures guide my processes from start to finish. Nothing I create is ever cast as multiples. Working this way leaves each piece as a one of a kind, heirloom quality item. It will never be duplicated the same way twice.
My intent as a jewelry designer/maker is to create finely crafted jewelry in limited quantities that are each a unique, tactile little treasure. I like to think that the work itself is the start of a long story that gladly journeys with the person it sparks a connection with. I want my work to become more cherished the longer the pieces are owned, handled, worn and loved...and hopefully the story and the journey will continue on down a family line for generations to come.
