Profile Information
- Location:
- Des Moines, Iowa
- About Me:
- I don't have anything really exciting to say about myself. I will say that I don't think I've ever felt so at home with anything as I do with making jewelry. I've worked with metal and filigree for a shockingly short amount of time, but I won't admit to exactly how long unless asked. I'm 100% self-taught, though I went to art school for a short time - Traditionally I'm a painter and sculpture girl.
I'm currently housebound due to disability, but that's just fine by me. I'm a homebody anyway. I have a black cat named Jasper, and he's my baby. I have a fantastic boyfriend, and he makes yarn when there's roving about. We watch Dr Who on Sundays. I love a good vintage piece of houseware and tea.
- Gender:
- Gal
- I am a/an:
- Independent Artist/Designer, Supporter, Shopper
- (Designers only) I create:
- Fantastic jewelry focusing on handmade silver filigree, but also attempt to create a fusion between metalwork and beaded work. I'm more interested in the history of jewelry than current trends. My jewelry seems to fall into whatever my current obsession is - Be it peacocks, Greek mythology, or Victorian stage actresses.
I also make original one-of-a-kind crochet and knitted items in very small batches.
- (Designers only) I am willing to do:
- Custom orders, Wholesaling
- Website:
- http://www.maugustawoodland.com
- Favorite Designers/Artists:
- I'm highly influenced by Art Nouveau, English Arts and Crafts, and American Craftsmen anymore. Edward Vuillard. Edvard Munch. Chuck Close. Alice Neel. Judy Chicago. Robert Smithson. Oh. Oh! Ana Mendieta! And...
The list goes on and on. Mainly its painters, because painting is the media I have the most classical training in.
- Favorite Music/Musicians:
- The Arcade Fire, The Shins, Regina Spektor, The Decemberists, anything involving Kathleen Hanna, lots and lots and lots and lots
- Favorite TV Show & Movies:
- Wheel of Fortune
The Big Bang Theory

I'm Slow
I've not really had the time to sit and play with Indiepublic much. However, I'm enjoying gawking over everyone's work. I like gawking. It's one of my favorite words.
I put up my RSS feed to my webpage's blog.
Thanks to everyone looking at my pretties!
