I find inspiration for my designs anywhere and everywhere, including the different hues of sky and earth, unusual found objects and the patterns found in nature and urban settings. The Artful Loop is a platform for sharing my joy of working with wire - whether it's the shiny smooth lines of sterling and fine silver or the rough matte smudges of dark steel.
My pieces are handcrafted from my home studio in western Colorado. By day, I'm a librarian, managing web stuff and answering all kinds of interesting questions. When I'm not at the day job or being crafty, I enjoy reading, music, and irritating my cat with affection.
