Artist Statement

My art has been focusing more on stitched, healing, and historic art more recently. I have been experimenting with new forms of stitching with beads, including geometric shapes. Many of my new pieces have incorporated crystals that will help give you a sense of well being. History is a part of all of our lives, and many of my pieces are based from historic pieces, or are historical themselves. I had the pleasure of visiting Israel in the summer of 2019, and now have Roman Glass jewelry available. The glass is 2000 years old, and has been made into a wearable piece of history.
