Before I started making art with beads, I was primarily a watercolor artist. About six years ago, I accepted a job as a jewelry apprentice and was re-introduced to the world of beading that had previously been only a childhood pastime of mine.
Each piece I create is hand embroidered with needle and thread on felt. Most of my work is commission based, from portraits to marine life.
