" I make art to be worn."

Good workmanship is as important to me as good design. Using my hands and assorted pliers, hammers, torches and saws, I shape and manipulate sterling silver sheet, wire, and copper into contemporary designs. Texture is achieved by acid etching, hammering and stamping. Color is added to my pieces with hand poured resin. I hand make chains and most of my findings: ear wires, toggles and pin backs. My work is continually changing and growing.
