site to your Favorites so you can click-n-visit from time-to-time

EVENTS
- September 17, 2004 One of my green Sculptural
Peyote Cuffs with Rhyolite chips, various glass accent beads
and African brass was auctioned off at the 15th Annual Northwest
Artists United Against
 AIDS
to benefit Evergreen AIDS Foundation in Bellingham, Washington.
It was fun to picture the bidding frenzy-OK, so I have a vivid
imagination! But combined, we artists were able to raise over
$40,000 to help support services to people with HIV/AIDS in
our community. If you, too, would like to support this organization
please look for details on their site at www.evergreenaids.org.
If you are reading this from outside the area, look into your
local support groups and give what you can.
- November 20, 2004, 10 AM - 5PM I will show
and sell my jewelry in Collage Four on Saturday, November 20
at the Sandstedt residence located at 1603 West Olive Avenue,
Redlands, California. If you would like a printed showcard with
directions and further details, please e-mail me and I'll add
your address to my mailing list. This is the fourth in a series
of well-received intimate gatherings, a collage of 20 artists
who share their art displayed in lovely residential venues.
The private settings for these shows provide a gracious means
by which artist and those who appreciate art can come together.
NEW WORK
- Treasures. In this year I've lived in Birch Bay, WA-I
am amazed at how quickly this first year has passed-I've spent
a great deal of time wandering along the beach, picking up bits
of shell, rocks, beach glass, odd pieces of rubbish that have
made their way back to shore. In addition to the photographs
I've taken, some of which will find their way onto cards and/or
into fine art shows, I have counter tops full of these sandy,
salty treasures. Designs for incorporating them into jewelry
are taking form. I'll soon have a body of work of Mermaid baubles
to share with you. I guarantee
 they
will be worth a return visit to this site to feast your eyes
upon!
- Bridal Collection. I've started designing lovely bridal
jewelry for lovely brides. Check back to see romantic personal
adornment for that special day.
CLASSES
