I create contemporary wearable art by weaving glass beads in layers of color, pattern and texture, often integrating polymer, wire, semi-precious stones and non-traditional objects in unexpected ways.
My work is influenced by my background as an art teacher and graphic designer. While I’m especially inspired by artists from the Impressionist and Bauhaus eras, my designs and themed collections also draw from music and other forms of art.
