Visual Art – Portland
I make chainmaille jewelry.
I've been doing this professionally sense age nine and I don't plan on stopping.
The chains that I create don't push the limits of what can be done, they show that the limits were already farther out then anyone else had realized.
Chainmaille is my life's work and through my work I've financially, artistically and socially been able to grow and create unbelievably immensely.
I've worked using this medium for twelve years now and in that time I've learned that it is extremely versatile and when skillfully executed it has applications in every imaginable field from high fashion to grunge punks style desires as well as being in demand for commercial applications, costuming, home decor and a countless list of other ways people love this type of work.
I am young and over a decade into what I do so I am always looking for the next challenge for myself and my art.
I usually find that challenge and dominate it.
