     Thank you for your interest in my work.  My jewelry and fused glass studio is located in Richmond, Virginia.  In 1998 I started taking metalwork classes with a focus on soldering, texturizing, pickling, and polishing, working primarily with silver.    From that beginning I added jewelry with gemstones, Swarovski crystals and pearls, PMC pure silver, and vintage buttons.  I started a business called GP Designs and did some shows, merging  my skills in working with people over the years in real estate with jewelry-making.

     In about 2004 I took some classes in glass fusing, also known as kiln-firing, which is a centuries-old technique made popular again.  This became my new focus.  I especially enjoyed working with the "magic" of Dichroic glass.  Soon after,  I bought a kiln and from that time on, I could be found in my jewelry and glass studio, whenever I am not busy with "life."    Not only do I enjoy making these Dichroic pendants, earrings, and bracelets, I like wearing them and giving them as presents.  In addition, I often set  the Dichroic  in PMC silver to create dazzling and unique one-of-a-kind pieces that are truly spectacular. 

     I look at everything for design inspiration.  I use a lot of color, and my designs range from geometric to the abstract.  My work involves trial and error, and as I work on a piece, it often changes and evolves, depending on where it takes me.  When I open the kiln after the 12 to 14 hour process of firing and cool down, sometimes I am disappointed, but usually the results are breathtaking and mesmerizing.

     Recently, after giving some of my Dichroic pendants as gifts to some special people who live in another state, I received calls from them saying that people had asked  where they can get one and if I have a website.  So thank you to all who have inquired for helping to advance me from "good intentions" to this actual published site.  Here it is.  I hope you enjoy.

Thank you for shopping with me.  I appreciate your business and I offer a money-back guarantee if you are not satisfied.
