Artist Statement

Silver and nature have always held an attraction for me. I weave, texture and form silver creating wearable art that adorns the body, feeds the soul and provides organic energy reflecting my connection with nature and my passion for artistic pursuits. I am concerned not only with appearance, but also with touch and form.

My mathematical background has influenced the distinct designs in my drawings and etchings on copper and impressions in silver.  Logarithmic spirals found in nature, such as ammonite fossils, shells, and sunflowers, inspire me and are a constant theme in my work.  I create all of my pieces by hand so they are individual and unique.

Perhaps the most important thing is I love doing what I am doing.
