If you have an interest in my work and would like to see various pieces in person, below are galleries and boutiques that display my sea life sculptures, and jewelry! You can also find my glass artwork with upcoming events and exhibits displayed below!
Please be sure to call ahead as there is limited availability on glass artwork and each shop will have only certain items on display. Also, I may be able to customize your piece based on what you envision, so please feel free to reach out and contact me directly to create your perfect sea life sculpture!
Art Expo is a charming gallery located in the heart of St. Pete Beach on historic Corey Avenue. For several years they have displayed and sold a wide variety of my work including sealife sculptures on coral, freestanding pieces, and jewelry.

Antonia's Boutique & Gifts, a Florida resort retailer established in 2013, is located in the heart of historic GreekTown - Tarpon Springs, Florida. They carry a variety of my sealife designs, including an exclusive line of sponge divers and sponge diver helmets!

A great family owned store with wonderful customer service!

Opened in 2000 in Pass-A-Grille, the historic section of St. Pete Beach, Florida, right down the street from the famous Hurricane restaurant. Opened by a group of seven local artists whose mission was to share in the privileges and responsibilities of presenting and selling their artwork. When available, A Little Room for Art offers my smaller sized sculptures on coral, and some jewelry.
