THE HEAVENLY HEMATITE COLLECTION

My newest collection for the "Fall/Winter Season" is "Heavenly Hematite". It is all about  "beads", one of man's first materials used for adornment, however in this series I've explored a sophisticated minimalist/metalworking techniques in order to execute them. I began using beads in this way when I was in art school studying jewelry/metalsmithing. I often use beads in a "form emphasis" type of manner. I'm enjoying making this collection.
