Artist Statement: The bag of coffee beans *exploooded* across the floor before you could even make a single cup.
You forgot your keys (and of course your hands are full-) on a rainy day.
Maybe you got some really devastating news.
Googly Eye Guy, who happens to be howling "Aaahhhh!," pops in, his eyes wiggling around.
Your mouth turns up into a smile and you let out a little chuckle.
You remember that you can handle everything life is throwing at you, no matter how big or small.
Technical Process Info: Hand Fabricated
Artist Bio: Catherine is inspired to create pieces that bring joy into the world in a way that echoes the happiness she feels from sunshiny days, bright plants and flowers, and hearing the uncontrollable giggling of children.
Catherine loves to incorporate the idea of play in her jewelry. By adding something unexpected, like a pop of color or moving parts, she works to create pieces to make you feel lighthearted and excited.
She earned a BFA from Maine College of Art and currently resides in Lititz, PA.
