5 out of 5 starsMy best friend saw your Mandala Necklace as we were shopping together many states away. She fell in LOVE with it IMMEDIATELY!
“A-ha!” me thinks! I am five months overdue in giving her a birthday present. When she got offline, I purchased it and had it sent to her directly with what she called “such a sweet note!” (Thank you kindly!)
This necklace is so spectacular it made up for my extreme tardiness. I doubt next year I will be able to find one of similar status so I had better plan at least a month ahead next year! -

Vaasvara, A Passage to Creative Being
I know at last I know nothing;
Ignorance
On such a scale, dazzels and frees my soul
Child-wonder becomes my daily bread
Broken for me each passing moment. ::: RUMI
The possibilities of transforming a sheet of metal and gemstones or a lump of precious clay into something exquisite and precious keeps me inspired. I totally surrender to these materials inclined over my studio table working and loosing all track of space, time and myself. This, I realized, is what I need to truly find myself, as I go through the triumphs and tribulations of life; juggling multiple roles amidst demanding schedules of everyday life. There are some valuable lessons I've learned on the way; never give up, but know when to let go. You will succeed many times and fail a few other times; you need the gifts of both to master your art and craft. If you stop striving to be better; you stop being good.
I work in the techniques of metal clay, metal fabrication and wire wrapping.The most important tools are my hands! I primarily work with fine silver, silver metal clay and sterling silver materials. I have also started working with copper and bronze metals to enable me to explore more as well as offer more choices to my customers. My work has been published in Metal clay Today and Metal clay artist magazine. Did I mention I love gemstones? I gravitate to unusual forms, colors, textures and chatoyance these miniature landscapes represent. I believe each stone has a story to tell and I feel grateful for this opportunity to draw, sculpt, mold, twist and hammer to make the form I desire to tell the stone's story and mine. That's how our stories are merged into one beautiful whole.
