Ariel Studios, Sugar Grove, NC
I live in the Appalachian Mountains and the beauty of nature is the most important inspiration for my life and my work. My work is entirely handcrafted by me through all stages of it’s creation. I work in recycled Sterling Silver, Copper and Jeweler’s bronze. I make earrings, bracelets, pins/pendants, barrettes, and rings. I use traditional metalsmithing techniques of fabrication to create my work including, chasing, piercing, lamination, applique’, and weaving. I belong to 2 Cooperative Galleries one in Boone and 1 in Blowing Rock, NC. I love creating my jewelry, I hope it brings you a smile.
