Soulful made jewelry and art
Hand crafted modern jewelry that embodies fine jewelry techniques of hand-engraving and stone setting in curious and delightful design. Focusing on delicate details with bold, wearable, and long-lasting styles. A fascination with lichen, mycology, the little things that lie underfoot, and all the wonders of the universe, I strive to create jewelry (and art) that captures the essence of living.

Art For Your Soul
The whimsical to the calming landscapes, I paint as a way to empty my thoughts, free my soul and connect to the ebb and flow of the energy around me. It might be a funky flower I saw or it might be one of my cats snoozing on the bed. Maybe its a mushroom that caught my eye along a trail. I don’t paint for a living. I paint for living. It frees me to express myself in ways I have forgotten along the journey. It makes me happy to paint and I hope they make their way into your hearts, too.
