BARBARA BROWN DESIGNS

As an educator with summers off, Barbara was able to explore the passion of creating things with her hands. Among her many creative explorations, collage painting and jewelry making were what spoke to her the most. Ultimately, the limitless textural possibilities of PMC made this her favorite medium, whereby she could now combine the textural delight of collage painting with jewelry fabrication. Moreover, with PMC, Barbara can now incorporate the depth she found in her music, and express it in a visual medium. In 2004, the Barbara Brown Designs jewelry line was born... Barbara Brown has always had a love of expressing her creativity through both music and the visual arts. As a jeweler, she finds creating with her hands grounding and deeply satisfying. Precious Metal Clay (PMC) has emerged over the years as her medium of choice. Barbara enjoys the feel, the tactile sensation of forming and molding clay, as well as the satisfaction and delight of guiding it into precious metal..
