The Artist Marcia's love for beautiful jewelry and the desire to  create her own designs brought Marcia to beads in the early 1990's.  Marcia designs colorful and fun to wear jewelry and shares her designs through teaching.  Remembering her own early attempts, Marcia recognizes that everyone learns differently and so takes great care to provide clear, concise and comprehensive instructions, graphics and text as well as a colored picture of the piece. Her work has been published in Jane Davis's Complete Book of Beading and Carol Wilcox Wells The Art and Elegance of Bead Weaving.  Marcia wrote a Masters Class for Beadwork and has had several projects published in both Beadwork and Bead and Button. She was a featured artist in a 2007 issue of Step by Step Beads. She also co-published two bead calendars, 2001  A Bead Odyssey and 2003 The Bead Goes On with Linda Parker and Dona Anderson. In 2008 her work will be featured in two new books and in 2009 her own book on Right Angle Weave will be published!
