"Fun and unique jewelry with geometry, asymmetry, and organic elements. "
I am a metalsmith and jewelry designer, as well as an actor working in theater and film in Chicago. I studied at Lillstreet Art Center, learning many different jewelry techniques over the past 15 years. My work takes many forms! I sculpt in wax & cast metals via lost wax casting; hand-forge and build mixed metal pieces; or shape hardwood & add metal inlay. I sometimes add gemstones & vintage...
... glass to a piece - as an accent or an integral part of the design.
My four current lines of jewelry include: Organics (abstract sculpted and cast pieces, mostly sterling silver), Wood (sculpted wood with sterling silver or gold-filled inlay), Coils/Frames (mixed metal pieces – silver, brass, or copper - with simplicity and movement), and Waves (set cabochons with “wave” design details, in sterling silver).
All my components are handmade by me. Also, I take care to recycle my metal, use sustainable hardwoods in my wood jewelry, and re-purpose glass and gemstones originally used in vintage work (1950s-1970s).
