sewing machine as her paint-
brush and pallet knife with the
result very much like a paint-
ing. Texture adds to the overall
effect.
To complete these remark-

her unique designs with beads,
lace, ribbon, yarn, pine needles

mainly silver but also brass and

ordinary to extraordinary.
He also offers one-of-a-kind
gems.
Their work is on display at
Backstreet Gallery, 1421 Bay
Street in Florence.
