Biologist Turned Jewelry Maker - Blue Beehive Studio
Thank you for visiting! I created Blue Beehive Studio as a way to combine my interests that have been woven throughout my life - science and art. I have always been fascinated by the environment and enjoyed taking a variety of courses throughout my academic career ranging from soil structure to evolution. At the same time, I always enjoyed using my hands to create things - from tagging along with friends in a welding or ceramics shop, or learning a new art technique.
Creating Blue Beehive Studio has allowed me to combine these interests by incorporating the beauty of a plant's anatomy, a stone's inherent beauty, or other symbols, into pieces of wearable art.
Over the years, life has taken me in various directions (including a wonderful family with three amazing children). I am very fortunate to move from doing art part-time while working outside the home part-time and raising children, to this Fall 2016 doing art full-time.
Thank you for visiting, and thank you to all my customers who allow me to continue to do what I love to do!
