Wandering Series
I will add the Wandering Earrings and most recent rings to my online shop this Monday at 1 pm, CT.
Every piece is one of a kind, and I can cut the rings to fit any size between 5 and 10.5.
Landscape
Migration
In my dream I saw cave walls marked with clay paint. Images of hunters and animals speckling the landscape.

Wandering
One of the skills I’ve had to learn as an artist is my ability to trust my instincts. My socialized mind wants to know: is what I am making any good? Who will like this? Is this worth my time and energy? These are all values of the modern productive world, but inside I am guided by something simple: I wonder what happens if I do this instead of that?
My task is to bypass my rational socialized mind so I can play. In a world where productivity seems to matter most, making something out of curiosity has become a radical act.

Serendipity
Mistakes are one of the best ways to get new ideas. When something doesn’t go as planned, I ask, what can I make of this now? My mind likes to solve puzzles, so any new challenge brings up connections I’d never considered.

Scarred
I wonder if I'll ever be able to tolerate people getting too close to me. When it happens now, I panic. I feel like closing the door and running away. It happens to me whenever someone is friendly and wants to get close. I always felt that this made me a bad person, someone who couldn't relate to others, but as I understand how we attached to our parents as children, I start to judge myself less and want to find ways to heal something that was shaped at birth.

Chimera
Had I known I would become the person I am now, I would have let go of the person I was trying to be much sooner.

Knowing
My biggest fear has always been: am I crazy to trust myself? By this, I mean that when I do, I end up spending a lot of time alone, in my own company, relaxed and at ease. Then I look out the window and see a big bustling city and worry: I should hurry up, do more, connect with others, “this here” has no value, “that over there” does. But then I’m filled with anguish because for me, living “out there” doesn't make much sense. Outer life has never fulfilled me as much as my inner life. Sometimes I manage to let go of my doubts and find this inner treasure again: my connection to what feels true, even when I have no idea if it is the right thing to do.
Knowing Ring.

Elements
“What is wild cannot be bought or sold, borrowed or copied. It is. Unmistakeable, unforgettable, unshamable, elemental as earth and ice, water, fire and air, a quintessence, pure spirit, resolving into no constituents.
Don’t waste your wildness: it is precious and necessary.”
Elements Ring.
