The art of adornment has been with us for centuries. Times change, ways to adorn ourselves change. In my work I use modern materials and technology to express myself, therefore giving one the chance to wear my contemporary designs. My pieces are derived from natural forms of the human body, the sea, and the flora and fauna that surrounds us. I work in mainly precious metal clay (developed by Mitzibishi in 1995). It is .999 pure silver. I also make my own glass pieces using dicroic glass, which was developed for the space program.
