Description
One of the passions in my life has been working with metals, especially the precious metals, gold, platinum and silver. My training in working with metals began in 1963, when I was a graduate student at the Cranbrook Academy of Art, in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan.
I have always been a visually oriented person, working with my hands, building things, painting, sculpting, and working with wood, metals and plastics. Being a student at Cranbrook opened up a whole new world of possibilities to me.
In 1972, while living in Spain, I had the good fortune to meet a retired jeweler from Los Angeles. At the time I was designing and making furniture. He gave me a bag of jeweler’s tools and encouraged me to start playing with metal. Within six months I had a jewelry business with several employees.
