While visiting my sister in Cranbrook many moons ago now, we took a scenic drive through the foothills to the little mountain town of Kimberley. Tucked into the Rockies is a charming pedestrian plaza called the Platzl, filled with cobbled paths and small artisan shops.

One shop caught my eye with a display of glass pendants—tiny drops of color hanging from branches like fruit in the sun. I was mesmerized. I chose one: a clear drop with ribbons of tangerine. At the counter, I asked about them. “My husband makes those,” the woman said. 

And that’s all it took. I became fascinated with the art of lampwork.

In time, I began a small business selling handmade glass beads to jewelry designers. I called it Sweetwater, after the underground spring and the name of my family’s cattle ranch in northern British Columbia—a place that shaped my childhood and still shapes my work.

Though I now sell my jewelry under my own name, the spirit of Sweetwater remains. My pieces are rooted in family, land, and a deep love for natural beauty. I've since added a metal working addition to the studio where I craft my own clasps using time worn silversmithing techniques. My husband has added his sand cast rings and together our studio is a noisy, creative haven.

Today I live in western Washington with my beloved American husband and our two endlessly entertaining dogs, George and Charlie.

The raven logo 

was drawn by my granddaughter who came to me one day with her thoughtful drawing of a little bird. Around the bird she had written a  story.  It read,  

"this green bird is trying to fly and one day he flew"
