Welcome to my webpage
This is the place to find out more about me, my beads, and my designs.
I'm self-taught lampwork artist as a second life. I say life rather than career, as I do this to live vs. making a living. Recently, my focus has changed from creating beads for sale, to creating beads for my own designs. Since I have a great love for the glass, I make far more beads than I need and will continue have many to share with my customers and friends. I love making beads and hope to be able to make them for a very long time to come!
I love color, texture and being different. I feel I see the world in a little different way and everything I make reflects my point of view. I try to keep organized, but often wander off the path. I have a very busy brain. Not sure if it is thanks to recent psych diagnoses or the medications I take. Either way, I keep moving, always trying to accomplish something. I actually dream of designs and have a sketch pad at my bedside for ideas. I have awakened to complete designs that I remember once I see them, but would have certainly forgotten otherwise. Its like the idea fairies came and left me a note! The down side of my tiny brain is that my ideas float by like pretty butterflies. If I don't sketch it or write it somewhere, they just flutter away. I do seem to have an endless supply though, so I guess a few can slip through without notice.
As to be expected, my schedule is a little unpredictable. My hope for 2012 is to begin attending approximately 4 local shows per year, as well as intermittent opportunities that present themselves. I will announce any scheduled shows in case you are in the Las Vegas area.
Current available beads and jewelery may be found on etsy and in my webstore. Links are to the left. Hope you find something you love!
