A mon sujet

I was born in Providence, Rhode Island, USA and received a B.A. in Fine Arts from American University in Washington, D.C. where I was trained as a silk-screen artist. Silk screening is a challenging craft that involves intricate layering of separately-printed and colored design elements.

Years later, this ability to layer colors and combine textures in unique ways became instrumental when in 1982,I began designing beaded necklaces. I've been very fortunate to travel with my husband to the Far East, Middle East, Africa and Europe where I've acquired an enormous palette of beads and findings,which have allowed me to create a huge and diverse catalog of unique handmade jewelry. These designs, utilizing the many hundreds of different components at my fingertips, include many one-of-a-kind antique Chinese pieces from the Ch'ing and Ming Dynasty . Other components that I may use include carved gemstone beads (many of which are no longer even available), Japanese glass beads, antique silver, coral, and pre-ban ivory from the late 1970' . All of my beaded necklaces, like fine pearls, are hand knotted to preserve their integrity.

The BEADLES line has been featured in many fine retail department stores in the U.S. as well as the Smithsonian Institution's mail order catalogs and museum shops, the Chicago Art Institute's museum shop and mail order catalog, the Seattle Museum of Fine Art, the Smithsonian's Air & Space Museum and Sackler Gallery, and many boutiques and galleries in the U.S.A. My jewelry has been featured in the Washington Post, Baltimore Magazine and in TV interviews.

In 1992 I launched THREE RING CIRCUITS (3RC), a jewelry and accessory line of Recycled Circuit Board Products that use recycled PCBs (printed circuit boards) and "found objects"; this line of Recycled Circuit Board Products has also achieved national prominence. Some designs are whimsical, some are strictly geometric, but all are examples of unique handmade jewelry that resemble miniature collages. THREE RING CIRCUITS (3RC) has been featured in museum shops, including those at the Smithsonian Institution Air and Space Museum and the Boston Computer museum, as well as many galleries and boutiques across the U.S. and Canada.

I have 2 grown children and I currently reside in Maryland with my husband, 3 cats and 2 dogs! All our pets are rescues, and I also volunteer with 2 rescue groups when my time permits. I'm also an avid knitter and gardener and I love to cook!

Ich bin in Providence, Rhode Island, in den USA geboren und habe einen Abschluss als B.A. der Bildenden Künste der amerikanischen Universität in Washington, D.C., wo ich eine Ausbildung zur Siebdruck-Künstlerin gemacht habe.
Jahre später kamen mir die Grundlagen, die mir das anspruchsvolle und fesselnde Handwerk des Siebdruckes vermittelt hat, zugute, als ich 1982 damit begonnen habe, Perlenketten zu entwerfen.

Ich hatte das Glück, mit meinem Mann in den Fernen Osten, den Nahen Osten, nach Afrika und Europa zu reisen, wo ich einen riesigen Fundus an Perlen und anderen Fundstücken zusammengetragen habe, die es mir ermöglichten, eine sehr große Auswahl an handgemachten Unikat-Schmuckstücken zu kreieren.

1992 begann ich mit meiner „THREE RING CIRCUIT (3RC)“-Kollektion, einer Schmuck- und Accessoire-Serie aus wiederverwerteten Platinen, bei der ich PCBs (gedruckte Leiterplatten) recycle und mit anderen „Fundstücken“ zusammenfüge.

Mit dieser Kollektion aus recycelten Leiterplatten erlangte ich nationale Bekanntheit.
Einige meiner Designs sind neckisch bis skurril, andere ausschließlich geometrisch - bei allen handelt es sich um einzigartige handgefertigte Schmuck- und andere Objekte, die Miniatur-Collagen ähneln.

Meine THREE RING CIRCUITS werden in Museumsshops, unter anderem in den Shops des Smithsonian Institution Air and Space Museum und des Boston Computer Museum, und in etlichen Galerien und Geschäften überall in den Vereinigten Staaten und in Canada angeboten.

Ich habe zwei erwachsene Kinder und wohne jetzt mit meinem Mann, drei Katzen und zwei Hunden in Maryland. Alle unsere Haustiere sind Rettungstiere und ich nehme ehrenamtlich an Einsätzen von zwei Rettungsstaffeln teil, wenn es meine Zeit erlaubt.
Außerdem bin ich eine begeisterte Strickerin und Gärtnerin und liebe es, zu kochen!
