Growing up in a home where there was always some sort of project going and our creative interests and endeavors were fostered, I developed a strong love and appreciation for handcrafted art.
My father was an incredibly talented silver/gold smith by hobby and I remember spending hours on end watching him work and playing at his bench. So, when my sister Kiki Huston (Kiki Huston Jewelry Design) inherited his tools and began "smithing" I was inspired and encouraged to give it a try. Having experimented with many different mediums over the years, I felt almost instantly at home with silver.
Most of my pieces have a simple, clean, organic feel. My work isn't "flawless" and I'm partial to silver that has the feel of the artist's hand. I also believe that most pieces get better with the patina of time and wear. I get most of my inspiration from nature where I spend much of my free time.
Each piece you find in my my shop is handcrafted by me from start to finish.
