Beads

Aurora Borealis

My six years in Alaska gave many lasting memories but none as powerful and majestic as seeing the Northern Lights.  The movement of streaks of light across a dark canvas sky, witnessed on clear, cold winter nights, standing on a still, snow-covered earth, reveals the profoundly simple connections of humanity, nature and cosmos.

Constellation Vessel Bead

Finite infinity... The firmament quenches the urge for exploration and mystery.  How might our universe appear to the thirsty eye?

Hearts and Goddesses

Representations of the human heart make me think about the dual nature of human expression; the order and symmetry of two sides, and the flowing crescendo from bottom to top. Like yin and yang they form a perfect whole. Two hearts, one atop another, create the mythical Goddess form; her power comes from the heart.

Berries Extraordinaires

Sensual and bursting with flavor, berries are a product of a living plant and the seeds are promising future life. My designs are abstractions of berry shapes and forms utilizing natural properties of glass. I like how the eye is drawn in, curious about the flavor contained in each of these clusters.

These beads are also available etched.
