After 2020
Moved back to Farmington from Las Cruces in 2019. After 2020, I decided I wanted to really pursue jewelry for a hobby.
My father gave me a bag of turquoise stones he got in high school and I acquired several stones from My Cheii. Which would get me started again. I had to relearn everything.
Ring Two
One of my Fathers turquoise. 10/18/2021
Bracelet Two
One of my Cheii’s turquoise stones. 10/22/2021
Belt Buckle One
One of those few pieces that you make in the beginning where you can be amazed that you really did something new. Never did I think I would be making such a piece. Many flaws with it. Many flaws but such a cool feat.

The Last Piece of 2021. Bracelet 3
I planned this piece for a while and ended up making it in one night for a Psychology class. I used it for a visual for a paper I wrote.
