I maintain a home studio where I create works of art and craft. I combine vitreous enamel and metals to make both functional items such as bowls, clocks and candle holders as well as fine art and jewelry. I also teach copper enameling classes at the San Diego Continuing Education Point Loma campus and at MakerPlace Inc. I also teach Copper Bowl Forming workshops and Bronze Metal Clay workshops at MakerPlace Inc. www.makerplace.com
