I am voracious about art - most specifically jewelry. I have dabbled in jewelry most of my life. I can become very focused on learning a new technique and probably a bit obsessive.

I love organic materials - and don't really care for plastic. Sure it has a place in the jewelry world, just not usually mine.

Metal, metal, metal! All kinds but really silver, copper, and recently brass. I love working with wire, PMC and am ready to learn a bunch more.

Yeah, I still do simple stringing of beads. It is so quick and easy and the results can really come out beautiful.

I want to own a bead shop and that is my current short term goal. So, those of you who are local may get to come see me one day.
