Kaley has worked in the fields of education, counseling, health, and small business ownership. She began working in the art field as an art teacher, and later as a potter and owner of a small pottery shop and studio in Denver with 3 other women.
Her love for working with clay grew to creating jewelry with Precious Metal Clays. Glass and its bright and energetic colors and the wonderful presentation allowed by fusing the glass began to capture her attention. Soon her delight in working with clay moved to combining dichroic glass with metal clay in her jewelry.
Artistic creation is a passion of hers and includes working with glass, clay, paper, acrylics and enamels . Whether working on a piece of jewelry made with glass or Precious Metal Clay, or a dimensional piece of art deco glass or a mixed media painting she finds great joy and satisfaction in the process.
Creating is an important and essential part of her life and she is always in awe of the limitless possibilities of blending colors or combining different media with the end result being a truly unique piece.
