When my
hands first touched finger paints to newsprint there was a pull towards
that daydream world where freedom of self expression exists. The
manipulation of paint, and pencil was a place to explore and manifest my
inner thoughts of the world. This was in the beginning where I found
happiness and joy and where I wanted to reside. I am an
artist/craftsperson…….
My work
is contemporary in feeling with thoughts of minimal intrusion, as to not
fight with the natural beauty of the materials in use.
Simplicity of form in a linear way, lines formed by wire, shapes made of
sheet metal, three dimensional hollow forms and gemstones, colors of
metals and stones, textures of surfaces, all of these ingredients that
control the end product and are part of the thought process I use in
making a piece of jewelry. A feeling of harmony with the materials and
my creative thoughts is what I am looking for in the end product. It’s
the big payoff which keeps me going.
