Statement
I approach jewelry making as a fine art. I enjoy working with diverse materials for their aesthetic value, NOT their intrinsic value. My work over the years has focused upon using traditional techniques of metalwork in a contemporary way. My works are sculptural in nature as my influences are inspired from living and past sculptures working in stone, wood and metal. I create small objects which happen to be wearable. Other influences in my art come from my travels to exotic lands, interaction with nature, and reaction to facets of society.During the last two years, I have experimented with a vaccum casting machine utilizing plastic sheets. The sheets are heats and then formed over ridig stone or other forms by heat/vaccum pressure. These forms are then cast into silver or gold and then finished in conventional means. Other works are a continuation of my current investigation of the granulation process.
