I began making jewelry from oven-bake clay in 2025. I find inspiration for my designs in the remote mountain-river town where I live in Colorado. 

 

Under the name of "Gentle Day Kind Life," I create pieces that blend the colors and experience of the Rocky Mountains.

 

The prevailing message in my work is gentleness, kindness and respect for our planet. Through incorporating stones, gems, wood, and metals, I combine natural elements with designs inspired by scenic peaks, valleys, rivers, and expansive vistas.

 

Each piece is handmade and one-of-a-kind. Necklaces and bracelets are strung on chain, faux suede or faux leather, and hemp, cork, or cotton. I avoid any materials that may have caused the suffering of animals.
