For 18 years Nina Bagley's full-time career has been transforming vintage images and words into sterling silver collage jewelry as wearable art. Her artwork has been featured in boutiques, museum shops and magazines across the United States.

When she isn't hammering words into silver or assembling images to paper and metal, she is wading in the river searching for river glass, teaching art workshops across the continent and spending time with her two teenage sons, Robin and Roy, and her springer spaniel, Aspen.
