ok, so melissa manley (http://melissamanleystudios.blogspot.com/) posted something somewhere a few weeks ago about her top 10 favorite albums. And although she said not to think about it and just write what comes to my head, I have been dwelling over it! So weeks later, here they are (not in any particular order). As with everything in my life, it is subject to change.
1. Outkast- ATLiens
2. Tracy Chapman- New Beginning
3. Pixies- Doolittle
4. Postal Service- Give Up
5. Lucinda Williams- Car Wheels on a Gravel Road

- Emotions and memories inspire my work as an artist. My most recent pieces are about conflicting feelings. I’ve found that in the cycle of life, there are both positives and negatives, such as pleasure and pain, loss and gain. I fabricate gold, silver, copper, brass and wood to create jewelry and sculptures about this cycle. I further embellish each piece with enamel, gemstones, pearls and found objects. These elements bring beauty and decoration to my jewelry, which suggests happiness. Rough textures and sharp edges are sometimes added to convey conflicting emotions.
