I love everything about this artist’s creative process and her pieces. My favorite piece at the moment is the turquoise Shirley necklace. Such a fun summer color.
I notice some similarties between Simple Elements and some of the pieces done by Valerie Tyler. I especially love her Saint Amour charm necklace. So pretty.
