I have been fascinated by crystals and stones for as long as I can remember. I had some wonderful teachers during my childhood who passed on their passion for nature, geology, crystals and gemstones. I come from a long line of artistic souls on my father's side of the family. My great grandmother was a very talented artist who started painting late in life. She left behind some amazing oil paintings that I will always treasure. She also painted and fired china, she had a fantastic eye for detail and could paint tiny pictures small enough to fit on a thimble. My father was an accomplished, well rounded artist and crafts person and spent many years teaching art in the public school system.

I've been creating unique pieces of jewelry for almost 20 years now, and I'm still excited by the process and I have an almost insatiable appetite for learning new techniques of the craft. Along the way I have also been drawn to studying and practicing various energy healing arts, like Reiki, chakra balancing, Earth based energy medicine, shamanic practices, and Angel Therapy. I have found combining my love of minerals, my artistic eye and skill in jewelry fabrication and design, along with my heightened sensitivity to energies creates a powerful synergy. I love to immerse myself in the creative process and I'm fascinated when some pieces seem to magically design themselves. I am pleased to share my passion with you here.

I delight in creating these pieces! Each one is unique, with its own energy that I feel as I work with the materials. They transport me to a place of deep knowing, relaxation and happiness as I work. My pieces not only look wonderful when worn, but also carry with them the special healing energies of each gemstone or crystal. My work is a constant exploration of the interconnectedness of all life.

I believe that each crystal and gemstone has its own special energies. This same belief spans across time and many diverse cultures. Talismans and amulets have been used for protection since time immemorial. Made from precious or semiprecious stones, the wearer believed them to be imbued with magical protective forces. In many cultures, they were, and still are, believed to carry a divine essence. The belief in the power of talismans and amulets was strong in the East, and the West. From ancient Egypt it passed into the ancient Greek and Roman worlds and then carried over into Europe in medieval times. Crystals are today still believed to have energies and powers of protection, insight, healing, and the ability to bring one into balance with the Earth.

It is my hope that you will find a very special piece that speaks to your heart.
