Kathleen
Dennison was born in New York City, where she spent her formative
years being exposed to all the exceptional culture of the city and
surrounded by the many artists that her parents represented in their
art business. Shortly after moving to Naples, Florida, she met renowned
goldsmith, Ruth Roach, who became her friend, teacher and mentor.
Further studies followed with metalsmiths Arline Fisch, Eleanor Moty,
Marne Ryan and Deb Stoner. Recent workshops in glass bead making
have added a new colorful facet to her work.
Kathleen has been designing, making and selling
her award winning jewelry since 1972.
With torch, hammers, pliers and precious metals
Kathleen fabricates each piece of her jewelry by hand.
“I work to create pieces that are well constructed, original in design
and lacking in commercialism. I find inspiration from the materials and from
the physical process.”
Kathleen shares a large studio with Robert, her
husband, who is also a goldsmith. Their work is sold primarily
in their gallery, located in Naples, Florida.
