I AM THAT I AM (Meet The Artist)

Let the beauty you love be what you do

There are a thousand ways to kneel and kiss the earth.

I am a mixed media artist and have been designing jewelry since 1995.  I love nature and the precious gems, metals, coins, crystals and minerals that are found. My creativity is all about turning the ordinary into the extraordinary.  I also love to use vintage and found objects such as skeleton keys, chard's of old chandeliers, buttons and shells . Circular time combines the past,present and future. My artwork reflects this concept. Each piece has the healing energies of the earth combined with reminders from the past and becomes an heirloom for the future. It is my true joy and pleasure to create wearable pieces of art, that are created from an intuitive place, where the old meets the new and a timeless heirloom is offered for you to enjoy. My designs are conversation pieces and have a deeper meaning. I like to incorporate the healing properties of  stones and crystals and have found a magical stone Selenite, which is truly stunning. The picture above is me mining this beautiful stone. In my design process, I often go to the edge: In yoga it's defined as the point of intensity before pain. The point of maximum aliveness, attention and intuition. I find that it is on the edge where the view is at its best. Its from this place that I create my art.  It is my hope that you will make these special creations your own and wear them knowing that they were created using great thought and special care.

Each design is unique and so slight variations in a beads shape or color is to be expected. Enjoy often!

Cherilyn the artists mother and inspiration

Cherilyn the artist's mother

The artist's mother Cherilyn was the inspiration for this piece. She passed away at age 29 and the artist found that wearing her image embedded in a vintage chandelier crystal created "conversation". It has been such a joy to create these legacy necklaces and see the joy of the wearer when they are able to Cherish their loved ones in such a way. This is a great way to incorporate your older beads not currently being used. The button clasp on this belonged to the artists mother. Other stones are pink coral, cherry quartz, onyx. You may order a custom necklace by simply e-mailing a photo you would like to feature. Or you can sample the classic art photos represented in other pieces such as the "Eiffel tower".  Enjoy often!
