Biographical
information:
I am
a jewelry designer with over thirty years of experience
and have maintained my studio in the T.F. since 1974. My
designs are bold, geometric, and often asymmetric. The materials
that I work in include gold, silver, platinum, diamonds
and other precious gemstones and inlaid semi-precious stones.
I do custom work, specializing in wedding and engagement
rings. Many of my pieces are intarsia (stone inlay) and
include small items such as boxes, in addition to jewelry.
My work is shown throughout the U.S. and has recently been
exhibited in Moscow, Russia, and Seoul, South Korea. I've
won numerous awards including First Prize in the American
Gem Trade Association Spectrum competition for gemstone
design in North America. I've also been featured in books
on jewelry design and many magazines in the U. S. and abroad.
Some of my non jewelry pieces are currently part of the
State Department Arts in Embassies program.
The
price range of my work is approximately $250-$20,000, with
the photographed items ranging from $600-$3000.
