My inspiration comes from the sea, forces of nature and the long chain of past artists’ conversing over these themes. My passion is creating tiny sculpture from silver, gold, and unusual gems. I use ancient techniques while keeping an eye on modern fashion to create designs that are new and timeless. I love the idea of art that is comfortable enough to be displayed on the body and worn everywhere. It can make the wearer become part of the finished piece. Jewelry should speak to the wearer’s spiritual beauty and compliment their natural beauty.
I received a BFA in metalsmithing from Old Dominion University and was voted Best Jewelry Designer in Laguna Beach Favorite’s this year.
I hope you will find a piece that speaks to you and that speaks about you.
