Flowers and blooms a theme of my work through out the years because of their symbolism of peace, resilience, and gentle beauty.

Sensitive week here in Minneapolis — but art still brings connection.

We planned our February gathering for light things—new art, new faces, and my favorite more daylight!!! ☀️

But the moments we’re in now asks for something deeper.

So this Thursday Feb. 5th (tomorrow evening) at the we are showing up for both art and community—with a small “event within the event” to support the ACLU of MN

Grateful for creativity + community 💜🙏

I remind myself that even small missteps can lead to surprisingly beautiful results. This pendant necklace is a perfect example—born from a little experimentation when I accidentally applied too much heat to a piece of metal not related to jewelry. Instead of giving up, I let the molten metal take on its organic, unpredictable shape. I added just a touch of 18kt gold for a subtle accent and oxidized it to create striking contrast. Come see this unique piece in person tomorrow, Saturday, October 4th, at the final outdoor Market of the season at Mill City. We're open from 9am to 1pm., and I’ll be waiting for you in the trainshed. Hope to see you there!

✨ Delicate, petite, and full of charm ✨

This little flower pendant glimmers with subtle cheer, catching the light with its faceted garnet center.

What makes it extra special? It’s designed with an adjustable chain (16–20 inches) so you can style it your way—layered or solo. 🌸

🌟 Available now at the Price Krishnan Gallery in the Northrup King Building—open Saturdays 12–5, with extended hours tonight for Northrup King Nights until 8pm!

I’ll be at the gallery later this evening and would love to see you stop by. 💕

✨I’ve been quiet here lately. Truth is—I literally ran out of oxygen yesterday. And without oxygen, there’s no silversmithing.

✨That’s my metaphor for today. It feels like the oxygen is low everywhere. Even while I try to keep my little bubble of positivity with family and close friends, the heaviness in the world—and the constant division—has left my heart angry. Coming online often makes me feel worse, not better.

✨ But my fire isn’t out. It’s just waiting. Soon I’ll be back at the bench, torch lit with a fresh oxygen tank. For now, I’m sitting in the sunshine, sipping gratitude for small comforts and warm air.

🔥 I’m curious—when the world feels heavy, what helps you breathe easier?

🔥 You've always harbored a fire within you.

The Fire Within pendant serves as a tribute to that quiet, steadfast strength—hand-forged from molten silver, highlighting its natural textures with stamping and topped with a deep red rose-cut sapphire.

This unique talisman is more than just a necklace; it’s a powerful reminder to honor your spark, even when the world seeks to dim it.

Only one exists. Yours if it calls to you.
