I am a romantic person who uses European influences mixed with classic styling to express my individuality in creating Eclectic Fine Art.


I am European born and raised, so my flair of all things euro., comes naturally. I live in British Columbia Canada and adore my ocean and rocky mountains with my family, and dogs, Our West Coast life styles lends itself to inspire my one of a kind designs

I have a very creative nature that likes to take shape all of it own, and leads me into various art forms, which surprises even me, since I recently discovered "spinning"! What next? Maybe I'll incorporate that into my jewelry designs.

My Style

Classic, old world styling with a shot of Lauren Bacall, Coco Chanel, Katherine Hepburn;'My Fair Lady' flare of Audrey Hepburn, Kate Winslow of 'Titanic' and the sexy bad girl of 'Madonna'.
My all time must have fragrance is simply 'SHALIMAR' by Guerlain to indulge my other senses (evenings and special occasions); seconded by 'COCO' by Chanel for all things daily.

Something You Should Know

I love all things English and French especially French cuisine and their wonderful wines.
I also believe every woman is a masterpiece around which my designs become the frame showcasing her unique beauty and style.

My jewelry line consists of unique, classical designs, one of a kind pieces, using finest quality gemstones, fresh water pearls, Swarovski Crystals, silver and 14k gold filled wire. Crochet work in copper, silver, 14k gold filled wire, in bangles, cuffs, chokers, necklace and earrings. Unique Chain Maille designed jewelry with embellishments in crystals and/or gemstones for that "wow" factor that enhances every outfit from blue jeans to the "little black dress". View my new line of wire and gemstone designed rings some 'bling' for the fun dates and dressy affairs.
