Precious & semi precious metal is used to hand craft jewelry, including earrings, rings, pendants and bracelets. The pieces may be enhanced with cabochons, faceted gem stones, patina or pearls. Forming processes may include forging, texturing or the hydraulic press. Some pieces are fabricated from sheet silver, some are cast with silver casting grains. Each piece is unique, as wood chips shed by trees or cuttlefish are used for the organic material burnout process in casting. All pieces are handmade by myself in Colorado. My work is in the Shadow Mountain Gallery in Evergreen and in the Majestic Gallery in Idaho Springs.
