Check out page 43 of the July issue of Lapidary Journal's Jewelry Artist magazine! My work is featured in Annie Osburn's "Trends" column, which focuses this month on animal forms.
I am drawn to imagery that reflects a connection to spirit, awareness, curiosity, and playfulness. I'm interested in exploring the idea that jewelry can fulfill roles beyond that of adornment; it also acts as a visual and tactile manifestation of memories, dreams, and intentions. Jewelry can become a powerful symbol of personal mythos, as well as a reminder to cultivate presence and openness. My work, while often stirring unique individual associations, also tends to point to our essential connectedness and a certain shared experience of the world.
