About Me

Alison is a teal-haired, art and craft
fanatic. Even at 44, she’s a goth chic with a rocker edge, and it often comes
out in her work. She prefers the roads less traveled… the ones that are a
little darker, creepier. She loves to make things that will surprise you with
color, content and symbolism. She tries to show people the other side of the
spectrum, and to get people to open their minds.

Alison has been a crafter since her mom first handed her a crayon. She has
always had a love for it; it’s in her blood! Her first big passion has always
been jewelry making. Her mom used to take her to garage sales (from about the
time that she was 4), buy her old beaded necklaces, cut them up and let her
re-string them. It’s been a love affair ever since which eventually grew into
an obsession with silversmithing. Her other big passions are scrapbooking and
card making. She loves paper and all the wonderful things you can do to it. The
messier, the better, in her mind. In addition, Alison loves to stamp, make
altered art, draw, paint, and whatever else she can create while getting her
hands dirty.

Beyond being a crafter, Alison is the blessed mom to Phoenix and Rhiannon, and the lucky wife to
Gene. Alison loves to of course spend quality time with her family, read, play
video games, and to simply make art! Alison graduated from Hofstra University
with a Fine Arts Degree with a Specialization in Silversmithing.
