Get to Know
For the past 7 years, I've turned my passion for chainmaille, beads and metal work into a fulltime career.
From my brightly lit studio in Brodhead, WI I handcraft each item selecting the perfect stone, pearl or Swarovski crystal to complement my Sterling silver metalwork.
Selecting my gemstones and beads with an eye for detail and quality, I work to make my jewelry stand out from the rest.
I always strive to learn new techniques and am constantly taking classes every year to try to perfect my craft.
My teachers are
Lynn of Midnight Moon
Kay Rashka of Ritual Embellishments
Jacqueline Lincoln of Long Canyon Jewelry
Sharilyn Miller Bead on a Wire
Don Norris of Academy of Silversmithing
Wendy Witchner of Wendy Witchner Designs
Diane Miller of Diane Miller Designs
I belong to 14 South Artists whose mission is to promote the fine arts.
You can find my work in person at Raven's Wish in Janesville WI, at Diakonos Designs in Stoughton WI and at Villager Gallery in Beloit WI.
During the summer you can find me Saturday mornings between 7:30 and 1:30 at the Dane County Farmer's Market in Madison WI. IâEUR(TM)m on the corner of King and Pinkney Streets âEUR" in front of Park Bank.
