Susan Beaupre’
Susan grew up in Florida, and attended the Savannah College of Art and Design, in Savannah, Georgia, where she majored in Graphic Design and Illustration. Several elective classes in jewelry arts, soon fueled a passion that would guide her down an unforeseen career path. After graduation, she braved the advertising world and taught elementary art for several years. After the arrival of her two children, she began creating jewelry professionally. The artist has recently relocated to Alaska after living in Colorado for six years.

All of Susan’s work is handmade and totally created from start to finish by the artist herself, using the lost wax process and fabrication. In her Alaska studio, she works primarily in silver and embellishes her work with semi-precious stones. She is inspired by the natural world around her and her jewelry has an organic feel to it. She also enjoys displaying uplifting, iconography on her pieces. Something everyone can relate too.

Alaska Rocks!!!
Artist Statement:
“The inspiration for Alaska Rocks! (aka Gist Designs) Jewelry occurred while emptying my pocketful of rocks, gathered during a hike.  Taking an object and being able to shed a different light on it, is one of my passions.  Giving a value that was not there or simply being able to illuminate subtleties that often times are over-looked can be found in most of my work.   Taking these rocks out of their natural environment allows them to be an unlikely focal point.

I enjoy the challenge of trying to pair complimentary rocks together, then incorporating them in a design that reveals their simplistic beauty yielding truly unique pieces.  The fundamental beauty of the natural world is an endless source for my artistic expression.”
Prices range from $30 to $135

Judie Gumm
Born in upstate New York, Judie Gumm settled in Alaska in 1972. Largely self taught, she has been designing jewelry for more than 30 years and works almost exclusively with precious metals in the lost wax technique.

Since that time she has worked closely with a small staff of skilled artisans who assist her in the production of her work. In 1990 her husband, Dick Gumm, joined her. Their goal is to create jewelry hand-crafted for a lifetime of enjoyment at an affordable price.

She currently lives and works in Ester, Alaska, a small community nestled in the birch-covered hills eight miles south of Fairbanks, where her showroom is open to the public.
