Artist Statement
Working with metals is an exercise in evolution. The more you ask of the metal, the more it seems to respond with a fluidity that is not apparent in the beginning. Each technique added to the repertoire, opens new horizons of possibility and design.
Though each piece is rooted in historical techniques and the natural beauty of the materials it is also an expression of the excitement of a new idea, material design or technique. Even the seasonal changes in the woods around the studio can influence a shape, texture or color used in the jewelry.
Some pieces explode spontaneously from the hammer or torch while others are developed through modeling, sketching or experimentation. Every piece models authenticity and tradition along with innovation and evolution. Each piece is a journey and every trip into the studio is an adventure!
