Irish Charm
May luck and laughter light your days!
"We’ve had lots of requests for a piece that expresses good luck, and this piece is my response. I was inspired by young Celtic dancers, and impressed by the art form; it’s such a unique expression of that culture. Uplifting, so alive, happy… happy-go-lucky!"
Beautiful Wishes
A gathering of beautiful wishes for you - love, health, happiness
"Calla lilies are a symbol of majestic beauty. I chose this flower to represent a pure and simple wish for beauty and peace in our lives… a universal sentiment for so many occasions… birth, marriage, anniversaries, in sympathy and in remembrance. Beautiful wishes are what we send to those we care for and about."

Remembrance
Memories... hold each one safely in your heart
"This piece is all about memories — how warm, comforting memories help us to heal when we’re missing someone. If you look closely at the carved icons on her dress, each recalls a memory by appealing to our senses… touch, scent, taste, sound, sight. We keep these personal memories safe within us, connecting us to those we love."

With my Grandmother
The best gift is time spent with you
"I carved this piece directly from my memory of time spent with my own grandmother. Sitting down with her, holding her hand, turning her wedding rings, asking questions about her life and listening to her stories. I’ve always been interested in oral history and the passing down of stories from one generation to the next. I think learning from those who have come before helps define who we are — it grounds us. Their story is our story."
