Artist's Statement

I am delighted to share with you
my joy and excitement
at the forms and textures possible in silver.

I have chosen to use reconstituted silver
because of my deep concern for the state of our environment.
One thing of beauty does not have to harm another.

Every piece is individually hand constructed by me
in California from ecologically sustainable fine silver.
Fine silver is 99.9% pure silver, no alloys or impurities.

Influenced by study and travel in Asia, my designs also reflect a
deep appreciation and love for the world around me.
Some of my jewelry is enriched with pearls,
garnets, sapphires and other semiprecious gems.
