Our customers have an important role to play in the creation of their works. Often people will come in with rough sketches or ideas of what they want created for them, or see design elements in one of the pieces we have already created that they want integrated into a new work of art for themselves. We love to work this way as we recognize that the interaction with our customers in the creation of our work advances us as artists and positively develops our creative work. In this sense we are "neomodernists" as we see this interaction with our customers as part of our artistic process. This results in giving back to our customers something personal in character, hand-crafted in creation, and just for them! Recently we have also begun to invite customers right into the studio to be a part of the casting of their jewelry. This can be a very exciting and even moving process: to watch and take part in the birth of a new work of art.
