I have been passionate about adornment as far back as I can remember. As a child I was mesmerized by the Egyptian wing of our local Museum, and a special exhibition on Pompeii when I was nine made a particular impression on me. Frozen in time. Weathered beauty.
At The School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, I studied Art History, Stained Glass, Architecture & Metalsmithing ~ Parrish Relics are symbols of everything that has inspired me along the way.
My passion is in creating finely detailed sculptures that are then cast in the ancient lost wax method into recycled sterling silver and bronze. Each amulet is hand-finished and patina is applied to create a time-worn appearance and one-of-a-kind individuality.
Happily reunited with my first love David, constantly inspired by our home, the fairytale-like Frog Hollow. Surrounded by Nature in the foothills of the Berkshire Mountains of Massachusetts, nestled in a hemlock forest beside an ever-changing stream, with our rescue dog Grady, and cats Galatea, Max & Ember.
