What is Blue Blood Metal?
I think of my jewelry as pieces of the past that have been given a second life. I believe that each piece had a memory for someone and will continue to hold new memories for the person that wears it now.
At a young age, I collected buttons and was fascinated with their intricacies. By using modern metalsmith techniques I breathe new life into them as wearable art. I am endlessly fascinated by details, texture, and metal combinations. I believe art itself is within everyone and everyone has the ability to find beautiful forms that inspire them. In my work, I value our past, our present selves and hold on to that connection. This allows me to stay rooted but also progress.
