While primarily a painter, I also love making jewelry.  Starting as a knitter of wool and other fibers, I quickly moved to
knitting and crocheting with wire -- 14 K gold, sterling silver, copper, and even stainless steel.  The majority of my jewelry incorporates
wire elements as well as semi-precious gems, natural stones, pearls, shells, fiber, and even found objects.

Please scroll down to see some of my creations.  You may see my most current jewelry in person at the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts.
