My designs


All about me

I'm an artist and jeweler living in Minnesota.

In terms of jewelry creation I enjoy working with wire and chain mail, and I love incorporating everyday items into my work (dice, fuses, guitar picks, hot wheels cars, whatever...)

When drawing, I prefer black ink on white paper and have found that Faber Castell PITT artist pens are phenomenal to work with!

I was a graphic designer for many years, but I found that much too constricting and wanted to step away from the computer in order to work with my hands again, so I left that behind and shut down my websites a few years ago.

I have two coloring books in print that are published by Dover. The first is Deco Tech, and the second is Visual Chaos. I also have a chain mail wrapped guitar pick necklace tutorial in the new book Creative Chain Mail Jewelry published by Kalmbach Books and have had my work featured in Art Jewelry Magazine a few times.

I'm excited to have found threadless because I'm an avid t-shirt collector - here I can submit my own designs as well as marvel at the skills of other artists and designers!
