    Yesterday I half-heartedly leafed through the Sept/Oct edition of  Oakland Magazine for an article on Lireille Gallery; we’d expected to see the article printed in the July edition. I was stopped mid-turn by a photo I recognized: “Souls Medal of Honor”, a piece of mine that I just wrote about here a few days ago.…

    Yesterday the coastal town of Half Moon Bay was overcast and cool; nice weather to spend the afternoon in. The Personal FX Gallery is a great space; the building also houses a wine tasting store, and the Courtyard Gallery. The center of the building is a very nice couryard. Kathy of the Personal FX Gallery…

    The recycled bottle glass pieces at Personal FX Gallery really catch the light when worn, so it’s hard to photograph them and do them justice. Below are some pictures where I tried different methods. In the picture of “Arrow” it’s almost impossible to tell that the brown section is transparent, albeit dark, glass. A friend…

    Fellow art jeweler Fran Grinels and I had a wonderful evening at the Lireille Gallery on Friday August 7th. We were amazed at the turnout for our first ever artists’ reception as featured artists. Most of the pieces seen in the case remain at Lireille Gallery. The work on the black velvet pad is my private…

    During the month of June 2009, the Menlo Park Library in Menlo Park, CA hosted an exhibit of jewelry, books and tools from the Metal Arts Association of Silicon Valley. Three of my pieces are shown above, and one is just below the sign (inside the gold colored wire necklace) in the photo below. The…

    Yesterday I was pleasantly surprised when my artist’s copy of “500 Knives” by Lark Books was delivered.  My “Khanjar” letter opener (page 267) slices open envelopes very well, when it’s allowed to see some action. After making it, I decided it was more of a display piece. I need to make myself a letter opener…

    After forgetting my recycled bottle glass display materials, I improvised an earring display borrowing materials local to Mendocino, CA. I had hoped that it would be a unique display in the gallery shop of the Mendocino Art Center, and luckily it is. Since this is the first time my work has been for sale in…
