My approach to wearable fine art jewelry which includes the use of authentic materials and years of design experimentation, adds depth and value to my pieces. This distinguishes them from generic or mass-produced accessories and demonstrates a keen understanding of the intersection between fashion, creativity, and individuality. By providing collectors with a way to express themselves in a truly unique and authentic way, I am helping them to stand out and be seen as individuals. Having a background in architecture gives my work a strong feeling of movement and 3-dimensionality. The combination of semi-precious stones, pearls, and mixed metals can create stunning visual effects that enhance the overall aesthetic of my work. Incorporating fine silver on natural materials such as saguaro skin, cholla bark, and seed pods into the designs, along with the torch-controlled chaos of reticulated silver brings a unique texture and organic quality to my pieces.
