There has not been a time in my life when I haven't been dabbling in some creative project. Even now, at the age of 50 something, the thought of a new box of 64 Crayola crayons makes me drool. Sometime during the 80's, I met polymer clay and our affair has bridged multiple decades and multiple incarnations. Each time we have parted, the personal growth in our respective spheres causes creative fireworks when we discover each other anew. During our current tryst, polymer clay has combined with wirework, precious metal clay and bead weaving to continually tempt and challenge my abilities.

To counteract the introverted me, I have relied upon

personal fashion statements to act as the conversation piece to blaze a comfort trail in new and unfamiliar settings. What woman doesn't appreciate compliments on a piece of her carefully orchestrated outfit? The eccentricity of some of my designs and unusual materials I use combine into pieces to bring that "je ne sais quoi" to the most conservative ensemble, sparking complements and conversation galore!

My passion for a multitude of interests has found its way into much of my work. If there is something you are passionate about, I am willing to entertain a custom piece. I also collaborate with a local beadshop to share my skills via scheduled classes.
