We all have stories to tell. As an artist, the stories that make up my life are reflected in my work.


My creative process is multi-tiered. Sometimes the medium I use, Silver, Gold, found objects, or precious gems, begin the story. Sometimes I start with a found object and wonder, if it could speak, what things it might say. Sometimes I create a piece that represents an exact moment in time, like an event or a conversation with a friend that impacts me. Other times the Silver leads the way in the creative process, taking me on a journey. Like taking dictation from the Muse, this is when the Silver speaks.


It is simply my job to listen.
