I initially fell in love with beading as a teenager, doing mostly loom and appliqué. I did put the beading aside for a while as I began my career as a tattoo artist, but picked it up again in 2007 and was instantly hooked. I mostly love working with seed beads and natural gem stones. Inspiration for my work comes to me in so many different ways. Very often ideas will come in the morning in my waking consciousness or dreams. I’m also inspired by nature, intuition, and my imagination. My hope is that others will enjoy my beadwork as much as I enjoy making it.

Most of my beadwork is on display in Lyons CO at Metamorphosis Tattoo Studio and Art Gallery where I also work tattooing. If you would like to take a closer look or try on any of my pieces, please feel free to come by and see the beautiful space at 304 B Main St, Lyons CO, 80540.
