to me there's magic in how light and moisture shift our perception of a landscape—the blazing pinks and yellows of dawn and dusk, the moody blues and grays of a fog rolling in.

i start each piece in my shift collection by stamping the back with the word “shift”, then I create the scene on the front by using a single transparent enamel with a combination of clear and white enamels, and silver and gold foils. my pendant hooks and earring wires are all hand-shaped—the hooks are either copper or sterling silver, and the earring wires are all sterling silver.
