I hand craft each piece of jewelry in my studio in the Manzano Mountains of New Mexico. My designs include a montage of sterling silver, gold, semi-precious stones, beads and found objects. Each piece begins with a geometrically inspired form, which is then soldered, riveted, hinged, textured and or formed. Color is then added with stones, beads and patina. I hand-stamp individual words to add meaning and interest to bracelets and necklaces. Recently I have incorporated several chain mail techniques as well.My design inspirations vary from my own mountain backyard to art studies at TTU and UNM, to travels near and far. I try to create jewelry that is fun and easy to wear—goes as well with a slinky black dress as it does with a t-shirt and jeans. Enjoy!
