In July of this year I completed Stone Setting I, a class at the Revere Academy of Jewelry Arts in San Francisco. I learned a great deal and had a chance to work on some beautiful samples.

After the class, I completed the 3-stone ring. Many thanks to Roberta Tanaka and the fine staff at the Revere Academy.

Mother's Day is fast approaching. Commemorate your special occasion with a piece of jewelry made especially for you!

The tenth Annual Art in the Park in Danville in October 2008 was a great success! Thanks to Norma Webb and the rest of the organizers, the event was fun and refreshing. There was some mist and even a bit of rain on the first day, but the second day was gloriously sunny all day.

I met some truly interesting people and I was very touched by a certain few of those who came and bought jewelry.

There is something emotional and special about getting a piece of jewelry. I am glad to be a part of it.

To everyone who bought one of my originals, wear it in good health and enjoy it. I made it with love especially for you, even though didn't know you yet!

We just came back from the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show. It was our first time attending, and my what an education it was!

The AGTA show was beautiful. I met a few people there and bought a few items. The citrine cabochons on the granulated earrings on the home page came from Bill Gangi Multisensory Arts at the AGTA show.

I only attended 3 venues there, and there are about a hundred more to see in future years. I look forward to it!
