Much of my work focuses on creating textured gold and silver jewelry. I use a variety of processes including etching, corrugation, heat treatment, hammering and roller printing with lace and paper. Gold is often added through the Korean process of Keum Boo, which bonds thin layers of 24 karat gold to a silver surface.
My inspiration comes from a variety of sources. Outdoor photographs I have taken are used to create etched images. Simple geometric shapes become earrings and Japanese paper is captured inside resin to add color and design to the metal |
