I am thrilled to return to making art!  It’s been a hiatus of about a decade while I dealt with life, but I am now raring to go and creating all sorts of new pieces.  I have been having fun making Story Necklaces – my original semi-precious stones medleys of textures and colors along themes like Under the Sea and Fern Grove.   I am back in the metalsmithing studio casting more flowers and leaves into sterling and bronze and transforming them into wearable art – my Organics IN Silver and Organics IN Bronze collections.  And, of course, I am playing with fire and free-form melting recycled sterling to see what cool textures result that I can pair with unusual minerals – the Organic Silver collection.  

Viewpoints Gallery in downtown Los Altos (315 State Street) will be featuring my work in the front of the gallery for August 2025.  There will be space to showcase all of my designs – the entire rainbow of colors of minerals and stones and a garden’s worth of flowers and leaves cast into sterling and bronze.  As part of this special event, there will be a reception on Friday August 1st from 5-8pm (think chocolate, cheese and wine 🙂 and three “meet the artist” days where I will be on-hand to talk about my creative process and help you choose the perfect piece for your collection.  Come visit me Friday, August 1st, Saturday August 16th and Sunday August 24th between 11-5.  Regular gallery hours are Wed-Fri 12-6 and Sat & Sun 11-5.  I am also available to meet you at the gallery by appointment – just reach out by email ([email protected]) or text (650-285-3475).
