Native American pottery has become an important part of my artwork. I make both traditional and contemporary pottery designs in a variety of clays, including native hand dug clay which she fires traditionally in a wood fire outdoors. I also make contemporary pieces using both the native clay and porcelain. You can see more of my pottery on my website.
My native artwork includes both ancient and modern American Indian shapes, symbols and designs. From a very young age I have been very interested in my native heritage. I have been working in porcelain for over 20 years and have been recognized as a Fellow by the International Guild of Miniature Artisans. It is this skill with miniatures and attention to detail that have made my native style jewelry so interesting and unique. I have also done some silver and lapidary work in the past. I bring all of these skills to my jewelry making in some cases combining the exquisite hand painted porcelain with silver and stone. The term wearable art is well suited to my jewelry. The hand painted animal portraits are as detailed as many large pieces you will see. Attention to detail and a unique vision for my jewelry result in unusual and lovely pieces of miniature art that are sure to become heirlooms.
