Welcome to Purple Cloud Studio...come on in, browse, hire me for a special project ...I look forward to meeting you!! There is no challenge too large or too small. I am available to design a line of jewelry for your company, make a specialty glass piece, compose a series of wall art, or you may purchase directly from this site (inquire about pricing and availability).

I wake up in the morning having dreamt about my current project. I love what I do and life is good...

My artwork is not limited to one medium, rather I like to combine elements to create something really special. Materials I typically work with include Dichroic Glass, Fine Silver, exotic papers, found objects, natural pearls, and glass beads from around the world.

A Marine Biology degree enables me to draw from a large pool if images and heavily inspires my work. You will probably notice that aqueous colors and sea life shapes permeate my work. With 20 years of jewelry and art experience, I feel like I have barely scratched the surface of the nature of my work. As I grow and change, so does my art. I believe in the Darwinian "Adapt or Die" theory. Flexibility is the key.

Working with metal and fire has been a constant, but my gems of choice have evolved over the years. I seek not the elite, but the interesting. It keeps my pieces affordable and conversation stimulators in a crowd! Unlike most, I used gold as a learning tool and a starting point. It held lessons of respect and exactness with your materials. At $400 an ounce, you got it right the first time.

By adding fused Dichroic glass and fine silver to my repertoire, I made an unexpected segue into table ware (bowls & plates) and wall pieces. Each of which has its own flavor and explosion of color. I love what I do and I just want to keep doing it every day. I never turn down new work- no matter what the request (hence the gravestone ornament). It takes me on new adventures! I am an Art Professional on the move--always looking forward to the next project.
