I have always felt fulfilment in the creative process. From the time of my first squiggles that were showcased on my parents refrigerator door to time of my last sale of a handcrafted bracelet, my work has nourished me. I went to art school in my early years, specializing in pencil sketching and oil painting. I explored fiber arts in my middle years - working from raw fleece to spinning  and dyeing wool to knitting finished garments. I've dabbled in needlefelting small scuptures. In my later years, I have found the joy of working with precious metals and stones to create wearable art. My hope is that my customers get as much pleasure from wearing my work as I have in creating it.
