Artist Statement:

I retired from a long career as a psychotherapist in 2016. It did not take long for me to discover that jewelry making was a hobby that I really enjoyed. I have used a wide variety of materials including semi-precious stones, hand-made glass, silver, and even recycled rubber. When I tried my hand at polymer clay, I knew I had found my creative home. It remains so exciting to be able to make any color, shape, and texture, and to combine them in an infinite variety of possibilities.
