Tonkotsu RamenThe little spiral fish cakes are called narutomaki, and are said to invoke the Naruto whirlpools in the Naruto Strait between Awaji Island and Shikoku in Japan. | Practice Cheese/Charcuterie2019 | Tonkotsu RamenThis Ramen bowl is made entirely from polymer clay, from the bowl itself to the chopsticks and even the broth. (Though a little varnish was added for a "wet" finish.) |

Tonkotsu RamenThe pork belly slices, also called Chashu Pork, are braised, then marinated in in soy sauce, sake, and sugar. | Tonkotsu RamenThe poached egg and the scallions were probably my favorite part of making the ramen bowls. The scallions were challenging; I had to make long, thin scallion beads and then delicately slice them like real scallions. | Spicy Shrimp RamenThe tiny slices of hot chilis wre built similarly to the scallions. I made the shrimp and the steamed greens on a whim. This is more like what our homemade ramen looks like- busy with colorful ingredients and lots of greense! |
Jade Sushi Platter EarringsAs with the ramen, the entire sushi platter is formed from polymer clay. (hung from glass beads and metal jewelry findings) | Jade Sushi Platter EarringsProbably my favorite elements on all of the sushi jewelry are the ginger and wasabi - I think they add so much to the overall piece. | Sushi Platter NecklaceThis platter is around 2 inches long by one inch wide. |
Sushi on Dark gilded PlatterThis platter features distinctive metallic gold edging. Made (And sold) January 2018 |

Translucent Pink Flower EarringsFlowers are among my favorite things to make, Translucent flowers doubly so! Summer 2017 | "Crazy Beads" NecklacesSingle strand bead necklaces featuring hand sculpted polymer clay beads interspersed with various reclaimed vintage and commercially purchased glass beads. | Crazy Beads CloseupThese are strands from my Crazy Beads Line. While Working on other projects, I often find myself with scraps of beautiful color combos and patterns.I like to make use of these scraps by turning them into beads. Over time, the beads started to take over. Most bead artists want multiples of matching beads, so I had to find a way to use an eclectic mix of shapes and colors, so I started making Crazy Beads necklaces. |
