Bonneville or Bust

Well never made it to Bonneville due to family matters - ended up in Santa Fe, NM during Indian Market. It was incredible - all the galleries - the art and of course the food. It was truly remarkable to see all the artist showing off their work and willing to talk about not only their art but about themselves.

About Me

I have always had an interest in art, focusing mostly on illustration and computer graphics for many years. After moving to Auburn I started taking welding at Placer School for Adults and then became an instructional aide, where I discovered I had a passion for working with metal. With the exception of a few joints most of my pieces are held together by tension, using copper or silver wire that I have flattened. I form each piece into a unique work of art using my imagination as I work the metal and wire together. I have begun incorporating glass into some of my pieces, feeling that when glass is added, it brings out the emotions that are hidden in the metal. I love “the fact I can help the metal find a life of its own, whether it’s steel, copper, brass or found metal.”
