Designer/Maker
During the late 1970's my Designs and Work consisted mainly of Precious Gems and Gold/Silver.
In the 1980's I attended Art College in Oakland California [CCA] and Calgary Alberta [ACAD],from that point my Design and Work shifted from Jewelry to include Reactive Metals Sculpture.
*[Fav.quote - William Pearce Conservationist - "I have worked faithfully,never craving the Limelight of public view,those that do are as soon forgotten as those that do not,the consolation of not having had a misspent life is always a great one".]
I live on beautiful Vancouver Island and continue to produce one-of-a-kind works in Jewelry and Reactive Metals Sculpture using the Metals Titanium,Niobium,Tantalum,Gold,Silver,Copper and Aluminum.
I also teach [part-time] at NIC's Metal Jewelry Design Dept. CR campus.
