By using her artistic eye to combine objects of color, character, texture, and size, Ann creates one-of-a-kind pieces to wear.
She collects Navajo fetishes, Chinese wood carvings, old coins, Mexican charms, Ethiopian collectibles, scarabs and beads (stone, old venetian glass, hand-painted Peruvian, African, silver, copper and bone). With these objects she uses semi-precious stone (Amber, Jade, Turquoise, Garnet) and various repurposed trinkets recycled from antique jewelry and objects.
The Results Are Works of Art
