Summit, NJ
I received my undergraduate degree from Skidmore College, 1985 Art Major (painting, jewelry), Art History minor and an MFA at SUNY New Paltz in 1987. After doing bench work in the NYC, I started on the art show circuit in 1994, and that has been an over 20-year journey focusing in the New York Metropolitan area (NY, NJ, CT, PA) and the Southwest Coast of Florida.
I am a single person studio. My work begins and ends with me, no other hands are involved in the process which is hand fabricated with tube, sheet and wire(sterling silver or 14K gold). The work is torch soldered using acetylene and oxi acetylene torches. Both hand and machine finishing utilized. The view point is streamline, geometric, classic/contemporary reaching for timeless, lightweight, casual to dressy ease.
