The scent, the buttery feel, the subtle shades, the combinations of texture, color and practicality intrigue me and challenge me to explore more ways to create. I am a former theatrical costumer and set designer deciding to use my talents to create and design leather goods and clothing using deerhide, elkskin, buffalohide, goatskin, cowhide and sheep/lambskin. I consider leather to be an all-arou
nd meduium for utiliitarian items as well as for my artistic wanderings. I enjoy creating 'from scratch' as well as 'repurposing' old leather items. Leather has been with us for a long time, lasting in use in it's functionality and beauty. Recently I have been exploring leather as a medium in other artforms. Hand-stitched or hand-laced bags, pillows, boxes, book covers, furniture coverings, clothing, etc,. some leather tooling, some fur, some braiding. Custom work is available by special order. I have fair prices and a huge imagination to design something very unique for you! Great pride is taken in the construction of all articles and no two pieces are exactly alike thereby making each piece unique... just like you!
