Artists
Statement
As an artist, I enjoy pondering aspects of geometric complexity in nature as well as modern & industrial design. More than anything else, I love creating with glass beads. Most of my jewelry pieces are explorations and representations of platonic & Archimedean geometry, and experiments with hydrocarbon structures such as graphene. My heart’s desire is to integrate an analytical process with my creative intuition in order to manifest high-quality, sculptural art pieces that are functional, thought-provoking, inspirational and engaging. This is simply one of the many gifts God has given to me; I believe strongly that creating this art is my life’s purpose. I want to use my creative abilities to inspire others that wish to do the same.
