About Me
A small home studio on Mercer Island in Washington State is where I work, influenced by the organic shapes and colors of nature in the Pacific Northwest.
The challenge of incorporating natural forms and colors into wearable art sculptures is what I enjoy. Trying to convey a mood or feeling in my work is the ultimate goal. Photography helps me with this process so I take lots and lots of photos. You can see those photographs on my Instagram account.
​
My work is primarily in silver, semi precious stones and kiln fired enamel.
