Everything about my artwork is personal;
how I taught myself, how I practice it and how I feel about what it encompasses. It is driven by passionate yearning.
I see the enamels, metals, stones and other materials as instruments working in concert. The image in enamel is the melodic theme, underscored and embellished by finely detailed fabricated metalwork. The other materials, ranging from diamonds to feathers to fossils, are used as refrain or counterpoint to the enamel’s theme. The orchestration of the finished work is balanced so the melody is compelling and the supporting variations are unifying.
Each piece is unique; each is completed with the engraving on the back of its individual number, metals, the title -poem written for it, date & signature. Each piece is registered to its owner.
I hope the images and poems of these intricately detailed, complexly constructed, and heart felt pieces move you.
