Traveling the world over, my life is all about living in exciting places, enjoying new cultures, meeting, sharing, laughing and at times, crying with many beautiful people and friends. Exposure to these wonders has created a deeper understanding of others and a greater tolerance of differences. In each new city I fall in love once again with people and the newness of it all, but lean heavily on my previous learning, my soul mates and my memories. Carefully selecting healing gems, power stones and beautiful items representing each of these experiences develops my soul. I share all this, in every one of my designs, never duplicating, always unique. I have been designing and creating jewellery since a difficult time a decade ago, where circumstances became life changing events. My convalescence after a long period of illness lead me to discover the art of jewellery making and this quickly became an all-encompassing hobby that developed into a consuming passion. I honed my skills through many hours of study and experimentation and at times, sheer determination. I am a die-hard perfectionist, never willing to settle for “just make do” ! I created a successful small business and have been fortunate enough to develop this on all of our travels and adventures. My designs reflect my travels and my life, so you will find gemstones from Asia, Arabia, Russia, Europe and the Americas. Turquoise from a hidden souq in Cairo, to lava stone from Las Vegas; Cinnabar from Singapore to Labradorite from rugged Atlantic Canada. We are but the memories and experience that we cherish in our hearts and souls. With these one-of-a-kind designs, please enjoy a little part of My Soul to Keep.
