I love rings. I prefer to wear rings more than any other piece of jewelry. And I especially LOVE to build 'em. As a self-proclaimed "Queen 'o the Rings", welcome to my universe!

Frustrating unpredictability gives way to drool-worthy by-chance colors.
Clean copper is dipped in a saline bath and then sealed in an ammonia vapor vacuum. The process is repeated over 36 - 72 hours until the desired patina is present. The copper is then sealed to preserve the patina.

My love of color and texture, not to mention the liberal use of fire are brought together in this technically challenging collection.
22k Gold on Fine Silver
In a many step process, the copper is melted out of the sterling silver. The evoluton encourages the fablous texture and allows the 22k gold to become one with the now, pure silver.
24k Gold on Fine Silver
Keum-Boo is an ancient Korean gilding technique. Pure silver is heated to 7oo degress. 24k gold foil is added and pressure is applied to bond the precious metals.

Every year the Fort Collins Museum of Art hosts The Mask Project. Local artists are given a ceramic mask to decorate or to help inspire a new creation in their chosen medium. During the month of April the Museum showcases all 190+ pieces of locally created artisrty. The silent auction of the completed masks is an important fundraiser for the museum.

I am privileged to have been a member Trimble Court Artisans for about a decade. Every other year we are encouraged to sign up for a Featured Artist Show. We can show any work that we want, not just what we have juried into the Co-Op. My last couple of shows, I have taken the opportunity to explore base metals (copper, brass, bronze). Indulging in a bit of cold forging and brazing, not to mention liberal use of patinas, oh, what fun it has been!
