About the Artist

GaleForce Design Jewelry grew out of my love for working with copper, nature, and the process of turning a flat piece of metal into something completely different.

I use techniques like acid etching, annealing, forming, sanding, soldering, and my own proprietary color finishes to create organic copper jewelry inspired by the natural world. People often tell me my work feels more like wearable art than traditional jewelry, which is probably the best description of what I hope to make.

For me, jewelry can be more than something you wear. A design can remind you of a place, a person, a belief, or something you have been through. Some of my favorite conversations happen when someone tells me why a particular piece meant something to them.

I’m always grateful when someone takes the time to share what they think, especially when a piece has a story or meaning behind it.
