About

I’m constantly involved in the creative process. My objective is to design exciting important neck art that appeals to people’s need to make a dramatic statement and enjoy beautiful art that they can wear.

I design statement pieces of neck art, using semi-precious stones and other natural and man-made beads, melded in unusual combinations. When I do trunk shows I find that being present, and demonstrating and talking about the enjoyment of wearing larger, more dynamic neck art is engaging to clients. It often exposes them to aspects of their fashion personalities they’ve never experienced before, but that they like!!

I currently display my jewelry at the Naples Philharmonic Center for the Arts, Kathryn’s Collection, Loving’s Fine Jewelry, and Botero Art Gallery and Frames in Naples, Fl. and the Shirley Allen Gallery in Captiva Island, FL.

I began my art career as an oil and acrylic painter; so I surprised myself by finding this new avenue for my creative process highly addictive, tactically mesmerizing, and emotionally satisfying. I am literally in constant touch with nature’s bounty, and besides my ready-made pieces, I invite clients to commission me to design neck art for special occasions or outfits. Each creation is one of a kind, and every individual is assured that the work I do for them is designed with their unique personalities in mind.
