Almost four years ago I took up jewelry making. At that time I played with wire and beads but quickly came to realize that this type of 'assembly' was limiting. I knew what I wanted to do but didn't know how to go about doing it.
The pieces that you see now are typically the product of experimentation - as I learn new skills and methods of design and fabrication I sell what I create. There have been several occasions where I have been approached to create special pieces for elite running retreats, a Boston Marathoner, and wedding parties and it has been those times where I have been most challenged and have created some of my favourite pieces.
For 2020 I have several new challenges ahead! In April I am off to Philadelphia to learn casting and stone setting from Michele Judge!
SCREECH!!!
Well that went sideways! Since the pandemic I have been closeted in my hometown like everyone else. My Philadelphia trip was cancelled, art shows are pivoting to online forums, and I'm slowly going crazy.
Follow me on social media where you can see my newest work and help support struggling artists :-)
Summer 2020
The Gananoque Boat Line has opened and is now carrying a special, limited edition LSD line! I am so excited to announce that I have created a one-of-a-kind jewelry line exclusively for the GBL showcasing Lake Ontario sea glass.
