Connection
Every individual is an expression of the whole realm of nature, a unique action of the total universe. - Alan Watts
Born and raised in the coastal foothills of Southern California, I grew up exploring the mountains and beaches of this beautiful land where nature is disappearing at a rapid pace. The beauty of nature and her creations has always been my biggest inspiration and I strive to embody some of that beauty in my work. I find inspiration both in the free form elegance found in nature’s creations as well as in the structure and harmony found in sacred geometry and architectural design. From this comes Iron Bird, an embodiment of both the feathered softness of the bird and the strength and endurance of iron. A reminder to honor both of these sides of ourselves and the world around us. I mix cruelty free feathers, leather, natural stone and crystals, reclaimed wood and metal to create jewelry that is both bohemian and natural and yet refined and elegant. Wild but chic. My pieces are a celebration of our connection to nature and to our higher selves and may serve as a reminder to stay grounded and connected on our journeys.
