Renee began her jewelry career in 1971 managing a bead shop in Binghampton, NY. When she began putting designs together as samples of what you could do with beads, the customers wanted to start purchasing them, but the shop owner didn't like the idea, s Renee left and starting doing shows. Back then there may have been only one jeweler in a show and no classes to learn how, so she is mainly self-taught. She has traveled up and down the east coast doing shows and this be her 36th year. In 2007 she took 4 awards at the fine art shows and participate in many major shows including Yellow Daisy in Stone Mountain, GA and Gaitlinburg Fine Arts Festival among a few. Renee's jewelry skills include Lampwork Beads, Beading, Wire Wrapping, Copper Working, Silversmithing and Glass Fusing. She has been fusing Dichroic Glass since 2001 and has developed many great ideas, including engraving the pieces and adding to them. |
