As a resident of Northern New Mexican for over 15 years I l have always loved the colors of the Southwest - blue skies, puffy white clouds, turquoise and coral jewelry, dry sage brush and the sight of mountain ranges. These are reminders that motivate me to create practical jewelry for woman and men using leather that incorporate Picasso Beads with earthy colors to create classic fashion jewelry designs. All these designs can be customized for your needs
