Twenty years ago when I created my first piece of jewelry, for my wife Deanna, I would have never thought I would be sharing my art on this thing we call the Internet.

But here I am.

My art is original, influenced by all of the roads that I have traveled on during my life. As the years have come and gone, so have apprentices, houses, children and friends. My carvings and jewelry seek to incorporate all of these beautiful parts of life, and hopefully, you will love my art as much as I love making it.
