Audrey has had many artistic ventures. A modeling career that took her traveling world wide. A love for cooking that had her opening and running a restaurant in California for six years. Audrey then began making and painting chairs after moving to Central Florida. She soon found out that they were to heavy for her to move by herself so she started a new venture, the making of jewelry, a nice and small venue to play with all the colors that Audrey has been exposed to in her world wide travels. She has lived in India, Thailand, and Europe and has traveled to many other places around the world. These experiences provide the inspirations for her color combinations in the jewelry designs know as Emerald Forest. Audrey works out of her studio in Central Florida with her four loyal and talented helpers, Rhonda, Kelly, Judy, and her daughter Amber.
Audrey uses all kinds of different beads in her designs. They come from many parts of the globe and most are entirely handmade of glass, sterling silver, gemstones, and other natural materials. Due to the handmade nature of the beads Audrey uses she sometimes finds that she cannot get the beads again so her designs are always in a state of evolution.
