While I have felt the need to create all my my life,
and have explored different avenues, the turning
point came in 1995, when I discovered seed beads
Taking tiny glass beads and using various techniques to
transform them into works of art is a medium that truly
resonates with me. I explore and use other media as well and enjoy working with and combining a wide variety of materials.
Beyond just making artwork, teaching others has been a
fulfilling goal as well. Currently I am teaching at:
- San Gabriel Bead Company, San Gabriel, California
-
The
Garden of Beaden, Upland California
-
Naturally Jennifer's Beads and Gallery, San Luis Obispo , CA
- The Bead Addict, Placentia, California
- Bead
Station, Lake Forest, California
- Creative Castle, Newbury Park, California
- NanC Meinhardt's Studio , Highland Park, Illinois
- 2007 Bead & Button Show, Milwaukee, Wisconsin
-
Baubles and
Beads, Berkeley, California
- Beads by Blanche,
Bergenfield, New Jersey
