The Story Behind the Stone - Sourcing My Materials

This week I thought I'd give you a peek behind the scenes and show you how I source the incredible stones that become my one-of-a-kind pieces! Finding the right materials is essential for any artist, but especially for those who work with nature's treasures. Whether I'm digging through dusty crates at a lively gem and mineral show, bargaining with seasoned collectors, or even just patiently searching the rugged shores of the Delaware River, the thrill of the hunt never gets old. Each stone discovery feels like a tiny adventure, a starting point in a journey that ultimately leads to revealing its hidden potential.
