About Amy:

Owning wearable pieces of art is a way to express your individuality, make a statement, and inspire conversation. Wearing something you love can create confidence , satisfaction , a sense of empowerment , and even connection. You can also feel good about wearing something of quality that is artist made with respect for the environment in mind.

Trained in art and metalsmithing I am inspired by nature, classical art and modernist design. Simplicity, wearability in art that can be both dressed up or worn daily.  Something you can feel great wearing again and again.

My work is a composite of recycled sterling silver, 18k gold,  repurposed colorful, mostly vintage glass and porcelain, pebbles and sometimes gemstones. I am drawn to using imagery of birds and farmland, both ever more quickly endangered out of existence. Jewelry can be the talisman that reminds us what is meaningful and not to be taken for granted.
