Artist Statement

I work with sterling silver, fine silver, 14k gold, 18k gold and hand selected gemstones. I am strongly influence by the beach that I live so close to here in historic Lewes. All of my designs start out as a sketch and from there each piece is hand fabricated in one of my two studios. My designs are incorporated into necklaces, bracelets, rings and earrings.

I have taken classes and workshops in Delaware, Maryland, Florida and Arizona. I combine my classroom experience with my self taught techniques creating each one of a kind piece. Every year a new design is introduced and one is retired.

2006 I was the featured artist at the Rehoboth Art League Holiday Fair. My jewelry has been in several wearable arts shows in Delaware and Florida. I have participated in many juried fine arts and crafts shows on the east coast. Galleries in Delaware, North Carolina, and Florida have sold my pieces. Spring of 2007 I was contacted by HGTV and shortly after a crew from California arrived to film me working in my studio for an upcoming show called That’s Clever.

In September I take part in the annual Lewes Artists’ Studio Tour where you can see me working at my jeweler’s bench.

Studio hours are by appointment.
