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

I was honored to be interviewed by a local television station for a feature called Proud of East Texas. You can view the 2 minute, 30 second piece by clicking the link below. It aired on November 21 while we were in Scottsdale, Arizona at our last show of the season. I saw it for the first time just a few minutes ago!

When are you coming back to Austin? I was hoping you would be at the Maplewood Art Fair today, but you weren't there. I bought some earings from you last year and would love to but another pair. To you sell on line?

Thanks,

Donna
