Fortieth Muse Original Designs

I began designing jewelry nearly 20 years ago when I created my first dichroic glass pendant during a glass fusing workshop. Since then I have studied a variety of jewelry making techniques, including metalwork, fold forming, wirework, seed bead stitching, stringing and knotting, chainmaking, lampworking, and beadmaking using precious metal clay, polymer clay, paper clay, and wool.

This variety of materials and techniques allows me to experiment and explore bringing together unexpected materials into unique designs. My work has been published in magazines, displayed and sold at various vendor shows, shops, and galleries, and can currently be purchased at the Farmington Valley Arts Center in Avon, Connecticut.
