These were my initial drawings for the Bold Necklaces.
Now that I've almost completed the series, I realize that I didn't make any of these ideas. This is usually how I work, drawing gets me going, but once I am at my jewelry bench, I follow a different direction.

Elements
“To find the universal elements enough; to find the air and the water exhilarating; to be refreshed by a morning walk or an evening saunter... to be thrilled by the stars at night; to be elated over a bird’s nest or a wildflower in spring - these are some of the rewards of the simple life.”
Elements Necklace.
Handmade with recycled sterling silver.
Soon in my online shop.
Bold
Warmer weather and lower necklines have inspired me to make short, bold necklaces.

Shop Update: Fish Pendants
The Fish Pendants are now available in my Etsy shop.
Every necklace is one of a kind. If you no longer see the piece you are looking for, it's because it has already sold.
Fish Pendants
I will add the Fish Pendants to my online shop tomorrow, Friday, between 1 and 2 pm, CST.
Every piece is one of a kind, and I do not repeat it.
Please sign up here if you would like me to email you the minute they are available.
Fish Pendant 7
I've enjoyed making this series. To me, every fish is a character whose nature requires specific elements: thicker wire, more texture, to be larger or smaller and more –or less– abstract.
I know when each one is complete because it lets me know.
Fish Pendant 7.
Handmade with amethyst and recycle sterling silver.
This Friday in my online shop.
Three and a Half Months
Muna is now three and a half months old. She thinks she has seen it all.
Fish Pendant 6
Every morning, I meditate and practice yoga to strengthen the connection with my body.
When I empower my instinctual self and rely less on my rational mind, I create pieces that move me.

Fish Pendant 5
All my charms speak to me.
This one says: among all the stars in the universe there is a place for you. Rest in the inner pool of stillness and flow with life. Your path will unfold day by day.
Fish Pendant 5.
Handmade with chalcedony and recycled sterling silver.

Fish Pendant 4
“I rarely draw what I see. I draw what I feel in my body. ”
Fish Pendant 4.
Handmade with green agate and recycled sterling silver.
Soon in my online shop.
Fish Pendant 3
One of the reasons why I don't make commissions is because I like to work with "mistakes" that happen when I create.
A crooked chiseled line can become a rugged texture, making the piece different from what I imagined at the start.
I value everything that takes me beyond the limits of my imagination.
Fish Pendant 3.
Handmade with amber and recycled sterling silver.
Soon in my online shop.
Springtime
Spring is my favorite time of year.
The afternoon sun floods my living room and studio, and the jacaranda trees outside the window are covered with flowers.
Muna loves it too!
Fish Pendant 2
I like it when a piece has many layers, not just of texture but of meaning.
Fish Pendant 2.
Handmade with transparent quartz and recycled sterling silver.
Soon in my online shop.
Fish Pendant
“I think that the ideal space must contain elements of magic, serenity, sorcery and mystery.

Fish Pendant.
Handmade with moonstone and recycled sterling silver.
