Creating art is my passion, and to turn my passion into an everyday experience has been a crazy wonderful dream come true! I love to play with many mediums, but metal work has been one of my favorites. When I started Hellbent Studio's six years ago as a place to teach and to produce my work, I was mainly creating large installations and custom commissions of furniture. Over the years I have been inspired to create smaller pieces of art and jewelry. My line includes funky metal works to sophisticated beaded and wire jewelry, and a new line of fine silver. (Thanks to Virgin Artist Cindy Scott!) Everyday is a new day to create another expression of myself. I hope to never stay within the lines when it comes to being an artist and teacher. This is my first time showing at the Virgin Artist Show and I am honored to be a part of it!
