The Artist
A girl of many trades, interests and experiences: jewelry designer, artist, event planner, arts education advocate, community volunteer, momma, runner, animal lover, photographer, donut addict, writer, magazine hoarder, Oklahoma City booster, hiker, knitter, state fair blue ribbon winner, traveler...
After working in arts and architecture for most of her career in marketing, event planning and museum curating/archiving she also co-produced a 10-year-run of the nationally recognized all-female art event, The Girlie Show. Now Erin is focusing solely on her full-time art career working primarily on her self-branded jewelry line as well as encaustic painting.
The Jewelry
Erin's jewelry is an extension of who she is. She thrives on attention to detail and movement of metal.
Working in her intimate home studio with her cat, Magic, hovering and doodle, Oliver, sleeping at her feet, she creates meaningful handcrafted jewelry. Each piece is designed with a strong awareness of the collection as a whole; ultimately strong and feminine clean lines and graphic shapes with an organic and edgy nature.
With a minimalist aesthetic, she uses a delicate mix of hand-shaped and hammered fine metals of sterling silver, 14k gold-fill, rose gold, brass and copper, vintage beads, natural stones and leathers.
Erin typically pairs her favorite sterling silver XL Organic Hoops with her daily uniform of black or gray, which easily transfers from running errands around town to a sparkly evening out to dinner.
