If you've wandered into this corner of my gallery, you're about to take a step back in time, to the dawn of my artistic odyssey with casting. Here, you'll find the echoes of my younger self, brimming with ambition and the raw, unrefined passion of a craftsman at the start of his journey. I wish I had more pictures.
 
You'll see the first stirrings of what would become lifelong themes in my work – the interplay of form and function, the dance between the delicate and the robust. Each piece, be it a pendant, a brooch, or a small sculpture, carries the story of my learning, my mistakes, and my triumphs I suppose.
 
The 1990s were a decade of exploration for me. Here, you'll witness the evolution from simple, almost primitive designs to more complex, narrative-driven works. The tools were basic, the techniques rudimentary by today's standards, yet there's a certain charm and a purity in these early creations that I believe speaks volumes about the journey I began.
 
I hope you can appreciate these relics of my past. They are not just pieces of jewelry or sculpture; they are the stepping stones of my artistic path, each one a memory, a lesson, and a testament to the enduring spirit of creation. Enjoy this glimpse into the beginnings of what would become a lifelong love affair with metal and form.
