Artist Statement:
My amazing travel experiences
and my lifelong love of
creating art have combined to
become a passion for creating
jewelry inspired by the places
I have visited over the course
of thirty years. Drawing on
the natural splendor of the
mountains, rivers, deserts,
forests, oceans, and sand
dunes I have seen and
explored, I strive to make
each piece echo the landscape
that inspired it. And natural
substances are the essence of
my creations.
Semi-precious gemstones,
pearls, seeds, shells, horn,
and bone are among the
materials I incorporate into
each distinctive piece. To
ensure durability and quality,
every one of my creations is
made by hand using sterling
silver wire, and all of the
links and hook-and-eye clasps
are cut and formed by hand.
The highest importance is
placed on color combinations,
which can range from
invigorating, fun, and happy
to serene and tranquil. Color
is also one of my first
considerations when beginning
a new design. And the greatest
effort is made to make every
item unique, incorporating
individual, often unexpected
final touches so that each
piece says something
significant about the person
who wears it. Explore and
enjoy!
