This results in a new one-of-a kind experience for the maker and the wearer of the finished product. I enjoy working with stones that have character where the "imperfections" may enhance the final piece.
First, I hand fabricate everything from silver and/or gold sheet or wire for the jewelry forms. Then I add stones and accents to create a composed, pleasing finished design. Finally, I may be accentuating these pieces by applying a sulfur patina to create a satin gray oxidized finish.
I enjoy each day in my studio as a chance to express my individual creativity, using the canvas of the body and clothes as a backdrop. It is thrilling to wear a jewelry art piece that inspires inspection, questions and awe. I am honored when my jewelry becomes a part of this personal expression. Custom orders or creative input in the design of your personal piece is always very welcome.
