A LOVE STORY...Once upon a time there was a French wire artist from Montréal who was making bicycle sculptures and selling them on the street. Along came an English girl from Ontario who set up beside him to sell her hand-painted buttons. Not able to communicate in the same language, the man handed the young woman a piece of wire and she twisted it into a tiny penguin. The man was enamored and twenty years later the couple is still creating beautiful work together...
We have been making wire jewellery and sculpture for over 25 years. In the past 3 years we have specialized in custom wedding cake toppers thanks to a customer's special request! My daughter has creates work as well and makes a beautiful line of tree wedding cake toppers that can be seen in our shop.
I have a Fine Art Degree and gave up a stressful Artistic Director job to become a street vendor in Montreal. I evolved into a jewellery designer with clients including The National Gallery of Canada, the Musee des Beaux Art in Montreal and the Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto. I currently am represented by the Viva Vida Art Gallery in Montreal (Pointe Claire, QC).
I give craft and jewelry workshops in schools and libraries and teach Mixed Media Art and Jewelry Making at the Viva Vida Art Gallery in Pointe Claire.
