Mixed Media
Metal & Stone
Metalwork
I am a silversmith who works with precious metals, copper, bronze, and brass. I create mixed media pieces by incorporating stones, fabric and wood and other found objects. I am an instructor at the Kingston Lapidary & Mineral Club located at the Tett Centre here in Kingston Ontario.
I have branded my own line of Adornametals Jewellery by created my own packaging and graphic design elements.
I do a lot of my own lapidary work, cutting and forming stones, and create many of my jewelry components
from hand, customizing each piece to create unique and one-of-a-kind pieces of wearable art.

 Ceramic Pot - Tenmoku glaze with miniature copper yunomi & plate |
Dark clay lidded pot was created with a miniature copper tea bowl known as a Yunomi. It sits atop a copper plate that is part of the ceramic lid.
I have created a series of lidded pots that I call Pot Pots, the lids are pots that sport their own lids. This one has a copper lid with a turquoise set in the leaf knob.

 Series of dark clay pots |
Enso inspired pot with lid was created using dark clay and a tenmoku glaze. The lapidary work was also created by me from a piece of slab stone.
