| Opposite are photos from a recent show in Chico, CA. Life on the Pond. I created a line of amphibians, frog and toad, in rings and pendants. This line is fashioned from fine gold and/or silver, and some items are enameled and/or set with gemstones. My passion is jewelry design. I have been designing jewelry professionally for 20 plus years, working in Walnut Creek, CA prior to moving to the Chico, CA area. I do custom designs both for my own lines and for local jeweler Julianne Babb of Chico. I have exhibited in worldwide competitions in Japan showing pearl jewelry designs, the Spectrum Award in Texas, San Jose Museum of Art, San Jose, Ca. and the Marin County Fair in San Rafael, Ca. |
