Coming from a background exclusively working in textiles, I was captivated by an entirely new medium, entranced by an artist using a torch and glass rods melting them into simple beads. Since teaching myself this process over 20 years ago, I am still just as passionate about using color, pattern & texture to create small round canvases that express how I see making simple beads into wearable art. Just as these beads are connected, it’s my aim to connect my work with just the right collector.
