about me
I am a jewelry artist in a suburb of Baltimore, Maryland. I have been working with silver wire for about ten years...evolving and incorporating new material in my pieces... Swarovski crystals, precious metal clay. I enjoy making more organic pieces and like the obvious texture and form of handcrafting. Each piece is unique...even though some differences are only subtle. I enjoy meeting people and invite you to email me with any questions about my jewelry.
I am a member of the Eclectic Jewelry Artisans Street Team here on Etsy and CREST for artists around the DC,Va, Md area. _______________________________________________________________ OH, By the way, I am also a Realtor in the Baltimore & surrounding county area. I would LOVE YOUR REFERRALS!

So today, my son and I took a trip across town to the electrical store and I purchased Ferric Chloride, the etching solution. It is a salt based product and not an acid...better. A quick stop at the store on the way home to get a basin to contain the solution and I was in business. I really didn't have a specific design in... read more

My team, the Eclectic Jewelry Artisans, has divided the artists into pairs. Each pair will create jewelry that will be sold exclusively at the website, www.eclecticjewelryartisans.com. This should be interesting...in my case, I do mostly metalwork and my partner, www.Baxtershouse.etsy.com does mostly bead work. She does beautiful beading and mixing our mediums should be fun...and hopefully result in the creation of awesome jewelry. We are going to focus on the Autumn palette.
