I've always loved photography.  Each piece starts with one of my photographs.

I was fortunate to have the chance to work in a silversmith's studio where I learned about jewelry production, and also many aspects of running a business.

In 2008 I began displaying my photography in pendants and earrings, which allowed me to combine my experience in jewelry making and passion for photography to create something of my own.

My inspirations are nature and the city and the shapes and silhouettes that they create… how they are different but also similar, and my own ways to find peace and a space for myself within each.

Black Drop pieces are sold at the Granville Island Public Market in Vancouver, BC (go towww.blackdrop.ca/calendar for dates) and online as well in selected stores across Canada.

Each piece is designed and handmade by me from start to finish.  There are pendants, earrings, rings and cufflinks - all made from any combination of acrylic, sterling silver, wood, resin and a photograph.

Although resin is a type of plastic, avoiding bathing/exercising with your Black Drop piece will prolong its life. Excessive contact with perfumes, oils or lotions can cause breakdown of the materials over time.

To clean, wipe with a slightly damp cloth. Silver portions can be polished with a polishing cloth, extra fine steel wool or steel jewelry brush if tarnishing occurs. Chemical dips will destroy the resin portion of the jewelry.

Sterling silver chains are coated to prevent tarnishing and will also help some people with metal allergies. These chains cannot be chemically cleaned but can be polished by hand with a polishing cloth, extra fine steel wool or steel-bristled jewelry brush.
