- About Me:
- VISIONS & VANITIES was a cosmic accident waiting to happen. . .
A life-affirming adventure into what would become my salvation from the tedium of big~city business & the isolating pain of chronic illness.
I've always been attracted to "shiny objects," so with the regained sight of a young girl's eyes, full of wonder & mystery, I returned to my childhood loves & began to play. . .first, with the natural stones & minerals that have always fascinated me. . .
then with the mesmerizing VISIONS in glass & clay & ceramics & metals, by so many creative artisans I discovered in my extensive travels on the Web & in Life!
A Dallas, TX native, I have lived in Santa Fe, Abiquiu & Taos, NM, where I draw inspiration from the Sky & Clouds, the Mountains, the Deserts & Rivers, the Native American Spirit & Latin American Cultura ~ and incorporate these influences with the Urban, Sophisticated, Exotic, Classic, Boho, Funky & Romantic styles that are universal favorites.
I love the interplay of contrasting material components in the necklaces & other pieces I design. . .and use only the finest and most unique elements ~ semi-precious Gemstones, Corals, Turquoise, freshwater & crystal Pearls, Swarovski Crystals, Murano, lampwork & other Artisan Glass pendants and beads, Vintage beads of all types, polymer clay, Ceramics & Porcelain, Shells, gleaming Copper, Sterling & Hill Tribe silver, brilliant Gold vermeil. . .
This kaleidoscope of treasures remind me that beauty is often the result of the interplay of opposites ~ the yin & yang.
My life motto for many years has been "RE-MAKE / RE-MODEL" ~ so of course I learned early how to re-construct my Mom's jewelry, and all the vintage trinkets I picked up in re-sale shops around the country.
I am a total rock fiend, love to paint & make "stuff" & write, travel as much as possible, and learning more about digital design & photo techniques.
First priority Now ~ getting through chemo & seizing back my life energy force!
(Update: I made it through chemo, started radiation treatment, then found out I have really bad brain tumors ;-( ) My priority now is accepting a miracle cure from my Creator!
" If one advances confidently in
the direction of her dreams, and
endeavors to live a life which
she has imagined, she will meet
with a success unexpected
in common hours."
My VISION is to build a successful business that enables me to continue producing Beauty in the spirit of creative generosity ~
so I can perhaps inspire girls & young women who need a chance at hope and empowerment through their own VISIONS!
