New Collection for the Tucson Desert Art Museum & the Crooked Collaboration Photo shoot

Crooked Collaboration Photoshoot (Tucson, AZ).

Sometime in the Fall of 2019 I received an invitation to showcase my jewelry designs at the Tucson Desert Art Museum for approximately 2 weeks during the Tucson Gem Show. It was the gem show itself that first brought me to Tucson, some 15+ years ago, so it felt like coming full circle to showcase my new desert inspired collection.

Join me for my artist reception on Saturday, Feb 1st from 1pm to 4pm (click for info).

In was a curious coincidence that while I was physically making this collection that my partner, Weston, was brainstorming with his co-worker Kensy at Crooked Tooth Brewing about photographing and filming my designs to make me a video! It was this moment of perfect timing that gave way to a most excellent collaborative photo shoot, bringing together local makers and shakers for what we do best!
