Inspired to become more Prolific

A short introduction:

I am a Canadian metal artist who designs and creates precious art to adorn the body. I graduated from the Alberta College of Art and Design in 1999 with Honors, majoring in Jewellery and Metal. Working with sterling silver, anodized titanium, patinas, semiprecious and precious stones, and gold, I create jewellery that is influenced by nature, architecture, and fashion. My Design philosophy of organic infused with industrial is demonstrated through a mix of natural shapes and geometric structures, with great attention to detail and quality of workmanship. I now reside in Regina, Saskatchewan where I maintain a wonderful studio and am a part time Jewellery Instructor at the Neil Balkwill Civic Arts Centre.
