Artist Statement

My designs combine semi-precious stones, sea glass, glass beads, crystal beads with braided or crocheted silver, colored, or copper wire, or PMC (Precious metal Clay) and silver pieces. Integrating color, form and texture, I create pieces that are easily wearable, from jeans to formal ware, yet timeless. My woven or crocheted necklaces are entire handmade using a crochet needle, or a wooden wire knitting spool. My jewels reflects the many cultures of my travels, the warmth and vibrancy, inspired by Guadeloupe (French West Indies) and the South of France, the sophistication, straight from Paris. Nothing is mass product. Each item is unique.
