about me

I started in silver after a long time working in large scale steel and bronze. I take inspiration in the delicate and transient forms in nature, and silver lends itself to the recreation of these small scale, beautiful, natural sculptures.

my silver work began mostly as a means to create gifts for friends and family. Typically, as most gifts are, the pieces were tailored to a special place or interest of the recipient. I received enough positive responses to the individual pieces that I have started creating series of pieces. Currently the honeycombs are my main focus, inspired by my Mom's interest in bees.
