Artist Statement
My jewelry is a personal expression of respect and connection to the Earth.
My background in art includes painting, ceramics, collage and mixed media sculpture. Over the years I have incorporated aspects of these techniques into my jewelry in various capacities. My passion as a metalsmith lies within the manipulation of metals and the transformation of raw materials into cultivated pieces of jewelry.
