I'm an artist, my medium beads.

I’m inspired by the beads themselves: the colors, the shapes, the way they sparkle, the way they feel in my hand. I rarely go into a bead store with a design in mind, instead, I buy the beads I find pretty, the ones that speak to me. I’m a very fickle chick and it shows in my beading and in my bead collection: I have every color, every finish, every shape, every stone, every type, every size of bead that appeals to me. Quite often, I mix as many as I can into a beaded creation.

My jewelry, my art has no central theme or genre and I wouldn't have it any other way.

I put myself into every piece I make which I hope translates into the finished product.

I strive to create an eclectic collection of beautiful pieces to share with the world.

Also, I have a second Flickr account for my personal photos, under the username MyFickleMind.
