About Me - Tell us a little about yourself and your area of expertise: I have dibbled and dabbled in many art forms, and am also an accomplished fine artist. Have enjoyed jewelry design for many years, and mentored under an accomplished beading teacher (in a bead shop located in Las Vegas, NV).
Enjoy beading in many different forms, and am constantly looking for new techniques. While in Vegas, my instructor taught our class to do many weaving forms -- Peyote, Commanche, N'debele, (RAW) Right Angle Weave, Spiral, Square, and anything out there. Enjoy designing jewelry and am constantly studying. I love nothing more than to see
what others are doing, and don't mind throwing out ideas.
Unfortunately/fortunately, I'm a right-brained thinker, which means I'll frequently awake out of a sound sleep with
something out there. Ha! Ha! Always keep paper near my bedside, because it's hard to keep to many things simultan-eously into one's brain. My love of art has Blessed me immensely, and for that reason I am an encourager. My Mom always taught me, "It's better to do something the best you can, then not at all".
