About Me:

My loveable mutt, Jackson, and I live in Charlotte, North Carolina. We are recent transplants from the Chicago area. He’s a Shih Tzu/Cairn Terrier and I have a MFA and a BFA degree in Painting. My time is spent designing jewelry and web sites, working on a painting or two, listening to podcasts, and striving to learn something new every day.

Gal

Independent Artist/Designer, Blogger, Supporter, Shopper

(Designers only) I create:

I am a wire wrapper. Utilizing wire to create jewelry dates back to ancient Egypt and Phoenicia. Using ancient methods to design objects to be worn in the 21st century is challenging and an expression of my interest in history. I incorporate a variety of techniques to feed my love for “mixing things up”. I’m very interested in designing necklaces that are asymmetrical and offer the wearer options (I like to think of them as wearing opportunities). If you have questions or comments, please feel free to contact me.

Currently, I sell my jewelry online at Etsy and ArtFire.
