About Me

Many years of drawing and painting portraits lead to cramped creativity. The years of producing work "to please the customer" weighed on my desire to design tactile permanent pieces simply for the real pleasure it gives me. My first freeing step was to produce large designs in rough cut steel to be installed on the outside of buildings. I later moved indoors working in sheets of sterling silver to create jewelry. Finding the silver work more gratifying than steel, I am pleased that people enjoy my jewelry. I make my own stamping tools and hammer most surfaces, finishing with steel wool or polishing to a high shine. My husband, Leigh, and I sell my work at the juried shows we are invited to all across the U.S. Email for prices and information please swadeworks@gmail.com

Just finished today ~ three men's cuff bracelets.  Looking for men who need one in my upcoming shows!  They are 16 gauge sterling silver and about 5/8" wide.  Each one is made large enough for a big guy and  can be sized down for a custom fit.  I'm excited to offer more for men.  At every show someone asks about men's bracelets when they see the masculine rings. I'm ready for them now.
