Molten silver is poured into a stack of pine needles resulting in castings that are very unusually shaped and explode with intricate detail.  The silver flows through the openings between the pine needles resulting in a solid silver casting; these are not silver coated pine needles.  Creating needle castings was the start of Naturally Cast.

Molten silver is poured, dropped, or thrown into swirling water resulting in smooth freeform castings with incredible shapes.

Castings of objects found in nature, such as twigs, are cast using the traditional cuddlefish technique resulting in solid castings that replicate the original object.  Gemstones are then added to complement the casting.

Water castings and/or needle castings are fused onto the copper.  The copper is then hammered, formed, and adorned with additional silver and gemstones.

Freeform castings and other pieces of precious metal are embedded and fused into a base metal of copper or silver.

In addition to making pendants, I also make rings, pins, earrings and bracelets.  These usually include smaller versions of water castings or needle castings.
