From Tiny Mad Idea Shungite Queen
Questioning illusions is the first step in undoing them. ~ ACIM
I finally realize something about myself: I'm not happy unless I'm creating. It's been this way as far back as I can remember. As a child, if I wasn't reading, I was drawing, coloring or making stuff out of other stuff.
During my 11 years living in Idaho I found pottery--which I really loved. When I moved to Washington and bid my pottery studio farewell, it took no time at all to realize how deeply I missed the art... it was like I'd lost an appendage. What if I could combine my artistic inclinations and my passion for natural healing with my love of the earth, crystals and gemstones? But how can I do this in an 875 square foot apartment?
I decided to try my hand at jewelry! Not just ordinary jewelry, but extraordinary jewelry--wearable art that uplifts and inspires healing--which is what I'm all about. I began with some basic copper and stone work, then I discovered PMC (precious metal clay), which allowed me to create hand sculpted one-of-a-kind pieces. I was operating under the business name "Tiny Mad Idea."
In 2017, my focus turned to shungite jewelry. The rare Russian stone called shungite helps protect the wearer from the damaging effects of EMFs. For more about EMFs, click here. Now I am officially Shungite Queen!
