ARTIST, BUSINESS OWNER
Professional Summary
I am a serious artist, passionate about my work and always willing to accept a challenge in designing a custom made piece for my special order customers. I earned a BFA from Bowling Green State University. I taught art at a local private elementary school, grades K-8 before going full time with my art and craft show business in 2007.
In addition to art and craft shows, I do numerous custom orders. I have worked with customers all over the USA via the internet and email.
I also display my work for sale in art and craft malls, consignment stores, and other venues. At present I have work at Sol's Craft Mall in Berlin, Ohio, Jody Did It, Marblehead, Ohio and Little Bar on the Prairie, Fremont, Ohio.
My website is slateinspirations.com and I am very active on Facebook. My personal page, Trish Smith, has numerous public photos of both my slate artwork and my unique, bead and wire wrapped/ wire woven jewelry.

Most larger pieces are in the 3$35-50 price range. | I began working seriously on my jewelry designs about 8 years ago.
