Today my work is strongly inspired by the immediate, the random, the moment. I’m fascinated by unexpected patterns found in nature, patterns of light and shadow, falling snow, windswept leaves, pools of water, linear patterns of sand… and the unmistakable order in all random pattern, order created by like shapes, by like surfaces, repeating angles, lines. I like contrast more then harmony, blending organic elements with geometric shapes, precious metals with non-precious stones, historic detail with modern designs, delicately sketched lines with bold shapes and brushed sterling finish with highly polished surfaces.
