how did you know that Diane, been consulting your oracle or something? Were you there/at either? [Just did a year study at FIT/degree at Parsons]. my pooison huh? Indeed! No doubt all the toxins I've breathered over the years..O, wait, you weren't being literal were you? [joke] I suppose you wld say I made my mark, as it were, as a metalsmith. Chiefly did something called "art jewelry," though nothing you think about when you here the term jewelry really fits [I don't even like trad./femmy jewl] more about the body as site, wearable statement shall we say. My stuff is usually quite large, difficult to wear w/out a certain commitment [that's where the 'statement' element comes in]. Hard, design, architectonic - more stereotypically male than female delicate/pretty. But since only women in conservative Amerika generally wear jewl., it ended up more a gallery/museum/collector thing [not what I wanted - used/living/moveable sites]. Very un-trashpo aesthetically! I use carved Correll by formica a lot] - used for countertops , and anodized aluminum [NON precious!] and such. Other than that trajectory, a lot of paper oriented work since a trip to Japan that influenced me greatly. I make books a lot.
