Golly, I'm happy with how this piece turned out! Sterling & lapis Blue Lotus dragon focal, created for a custom order. Now, I need to set it on a necklace & make "dragon tail" earrings to go with. For a lovely customer in Canada, no less! ☺️ #wirewrapdragon #customjewelry #artjewelrydesigns

I'm sure this goes against the social media grain, but...I follow what I like. So, thanks to anyone who's followed me, but if it's just for a follow back, don't bother. I follow what I'm interested in, not just regurgitated political posts. ☺️

Well, have finished nup my first gig of the year...I was full of dread, figured with all the crap going on right now, no one would be coming out to events & spending money on something as non-essential as jewelry. Very thankful I was wrong! #eventsintucson #artshows #arizonaspringfestivals

In an increasingly hot, dry, crusty desert, nothing brings more joy, more sheer optimism & sense of hope than green sprouts & buds! Tiny now, insignificant...but so much potential! #desertgarden #homegardening #selfsufficiency

One of the pleasures of off grid living is being able to interact with the critters in our environment. Well, most of them, anyway...honey bees (invasive), range cattle (invasive), voles & kissing bugs are on my shit list. But this guy? Beautiful little desert fox... #desertwildlife #offgridlife

Well, this garden ain't gonna clean itself! Today's been such a depressing day, all the shit going on in the world just feels suffocating...debilitating... All I can do is try to clear away the old to make room for the new. #gardening #springcleaning #tryingtocope

One of things romanticized YouTube channels about living off grid don't much talk about...when you live miles in, on unmaintained dirt roads you have two options; pay for someone to come work your roads with machines if you have the money. Or do it yourself. We don't have the money, so...

Well, after nearly 25 years, pulling the plug on Netflix. I can't, I won't keep accommodating the greed of these streaming services. I love their terminology..."we're contacting you with a pricing update". Netflix, you think I'm better with my subscription being "updated" than being "increased"???

No matter how effed up things seem right now, I resist the sense of existential dread & focus on beauty. Both what I can create & what Nature shows me. My little off grid homestead at twilight... #offgridlife #deserttwilight

Cooking is really a source of entertainment for us...we are very into Indian cooking. This was a recent dinner; toor dahl stew over basmati rice & samosas with mint chutney.

Creativity is so much who I am. I have to share what I create... that's that. This piece sprang from my mind almost immediately, after a hike through the desert washes, looking for firewood. Inspired by the massive, mystical old mesquites that root deep along the wash beds.... Desert Wander.

Okay, so...my very first post. A thing from my impossible bucket list...a trip to Cappadocia, Turkey. To touch the magical faery rock dwellings & drink Cappadocia wine.
