I'm an artist....usually working in metal...so I call myself an Artsmith. I'm passionate about people, spirituality, creativity and the interconnectedness of all things. I'm a Unitarian Universalist with personal beliefs of a pagan nature.

I'm a water sign, a very water oriented person (lived on a boat for 12 yrs) I go by silvergoldberry because I have always strongly identified with Lady Goldberry from Lord of the Rings...a minor character, didn't even make the movies....and as a jeweler, I work in silver as well as gold..put em all together and whaddaya got...Silvergoldberry.

So that's the name.

I'm a belly dancer, musician.
I like to swim, sail, sing and teach.
I have a wonderful 11 yr old daughter and we recently started to homeschool, more unschooling actually. We're both enjoying it immensely.

I live with and take care of my friend and former teacher who had a major stroke four years ago. If it weren't for me, he would still be in a nursing home, but it's been a win-win situation for both of us involving many choices.

I have a sweetie bumpkin/husband named David. He inspires, delights, appreciates and challenges me.

My life the last few years has been more and more about conscious living and making real choices about the life we have. We are our decisions and the question is what we learn from them.

Life is good.
