Creating porcelain jewelry allows me to sculpt and paint, using clay and glazes.
My porcelain jewelry (earrings, pins, and necklaces) is sculpted in high-fire (cone 10) porcelain and is fired several times. To achieve hardness and durability, it is fired to 2400 degrees. Colors are produced by using a variety of glazes that I have developed. The precious metals (24-karat gold, and platinum) are applied before the last firing to accent and infuse the pieces with a lustrous finish.
My designs are inspired by nature in all its wondrous complexity of sky, land, water, and the fire of the living Earth. It is through the process of sculpting, glazing, and firing that I attempt to instill each piece of my jewelry with my feelings about nature.
