Artist Statement:
I transform what I see on the forest floor into jewelry that is bold and playful. Sawing, soldering, and forming metal with my hands allows me to make repetitive forms that can be assembled into many different shapes. Working primarily with sterling silver and gold, I also incorporate hand made felt with my metal work. Hand Felted shapes provide bright color and a tactile fuzziness. With simple, lively forms, I create modern jewelry that is fun to to make and wear.
