I’ve been a jeweler since I graduated from SIU with a degree in Metalsmithing. I have been designing and making my own line of jewelry and selling through fine art trade shows, to galleries, museums and to the public since 1985. I started painting in acrylics and encaustics ( hot wax) years ago and plan to teach them in my new studio.
I married my college sweetheart in 1984. We are almost ready to move into a house and studio called Skinny Dog Ranch that we designed and built on 6 acres in Boulder, Colorado.
We have adopted Greyhounds for the last 13 years and currently we have 5 retired racers. I have been a volunteer with Colorado Greyhound Adoption for 12 years.
