"My
work reflects connection with the earth and the sea. The gemstones and
pearls are center stage in my jewelry, showing off their form, texture,
color, and interaction with each other. I see the metal, whether gold
or silver, as playing the supporting role to the stones in the style of
each piece. Every gem from the earth or the sea has meaning for us, and
I hope to communicate that energy in my work."
"Major influences to my style include Laura Gibson, Monique L'huillier, and Nancy Troske."
