The artist at work.

I have always been interested in making art. Since graduating from college I have studied and worked with china painting, ceramics, water colors, acrylics and oil. From the early 1970's through the 1980's, I painted folk art, taught acrylics at the junior college level, and did juried art shows.  Then, I took a jewelry class.  I was hooked!  My love of jewelry goes back a long way.  Can you inherit it?  My grandmother loved big and glitzy.  My husband calls me a raven because I am drawn to anything shiny and glitzy.  I started collecting Swarovski pins.  Later, I moved on to vintage jewelry.  I loved restoring vintage pieces.  Soon, this collection became so big, that I decided to start my own business and named it Array of Elegance.  I began to sell my vintage jewelry in antique stores.  Today, I still add vintage to my new pieces.
My jewelry education is rooted in both classes and books.  I have a passion for learning new techniques and ideas for my jewelry.   For me, working with metal and stone has filled a need to create and see beauty not filled in the other medias.
My works of art are fabricated by hand and are one-of-a-kind.  My hope is that you will enjoy wearing your unique piece of jewelry as much as I enjoyed creating it.
