Contemporary coastal jewelry: recycled gold and silver sanctuaries infused with gemstones and sea glass. Water is essential for all life and improves our quality of living simply by being in, on, or even around it. This is the inspiration for my art. I want to share my love of the oceans, lakes, and rivers I grew up around with everyone through my jewelry. Recycled gold and silver are formed and textured by hand, tools, and torch. Each precious sanctuary is infused with gemstones and sea glass into contemporary coastal designs that capture the elements of water, whether it is a cascading waterfall, a rippling pond, a rushing river, or a crashing wave.
