I starting creating my earrings in 1993 as an escape from a dull day job (programming computers). I have found it to be a good mix - computers pay the bills, but art feeds the soul.

A little bit more about my work
|
All earrings in my collection are made from fused art glass. I then add glass, semi-precious stone, and metal beads to enhance the glass pendant.
The glass is cut, arranged, then fired in kiln at temperatures in excess of 1500 degrees. The result is a shiny, light weight and durable pair of earrings that will retain their beauty for years to come.
Contrary to popular belief, glass is a very sturdy material for creating earrings. Short of crashing on a tile floor, they can withstand the normal rigours of constant wear.
All findings used are choosen for wear by people with sensitive ears. I use only sterling silver, and 14kt gold-filled (not plated!) earwires. Posts are surgical stainless steel with barrel backs.
