Artist Bio
Stonehouse Studio
Betsy Baker fabricates one of a kind and limited edition contemporary studio jewelry in polymer and mixed metals featuring hollow construction polymer techniques with mixed media surface effects using paint, texture, and inclusions. Pieces are accented with hand fabricated mixed metals and re-purposed vintage jewelry components. The work is contemporary, elegant and simple, investigating the effects of layers and textures by using repetition, variation and juxtaposition of shapes.
In addition to Boston shows, Betsy travels extensively exhibiting at fine craft shows all over the country. Shows include the American Craft Council shows in Baltimore, Atlanta, St Paul and San Francisco, One of a Kind shows in Chicago, ArtRider shows in New York, Craft +Design show in Richmond and the Paradise City Arts Festivals in Northampton and Marlborough MA.
