Portfolio Example & Artist Statement

Traditional Navajo handmade jewelry. Consists of using commercial sterling silver; hand forged sterling and coin silver to fabricate wearable art. Designs are handstamped. Care is taken to honor and preserve tradition without merely replicating works of old. Modern designs using traditional techniques help push the envelope. One aspect that remains the same is that silverwork is the focal point while turquoise serves to accentuate it. That is the heart of traditional Navajo jewelry.
