Artist Statement:
Every time I pick up a piece
of my jewelry, it brings to
mind once again the feeling I
had of complete relaxation
while walking the beach,
hearing the rhythmic sound of
the waves breaking, the
solitude, and the anticipation
of what I would find that day.
Every time I look at sea
glass (also known as seaglass
or beach glass),I am amazed at
nature’s incredible good taste
in rectifying man's waste.
With my treasures from the sea
and nature, each piece is like
a miniature work of art that I
have been allowed to embellish
to create something even more
unique.
All my life I have been
fascinated by different art
media and have explored the
creation of art through
drawing, pottery, weaving, and
jewelry design. At the
present time, I am drawn to
the whole process of creating
one-of-a-kind wire wrapped sea
glass or sea treasure jewelry.
I wire wrap each piece of sea
glass and/or sea treasure from
the sea as its own unique

anticipation I feel during the
creative process, wondering
how the finished piece is
going to look, knowing that

| Biggest Artistic Inspiration |
My mom (who is an accomplished artist in her own right), and my grandfather (whose love of nature was passed onto myself. My mom instilled in me a love and appreciation for all art forms. My grandfather taught me to be observant in life. There is so much to "see" above and below eye level. I believe their influence has a significant impact on where I am now in my exploration of one-of-a-kind jewelry utilizing wire wrap and sea glass (or seaglass or beach glass) and nature's treasures at this time. |
