He loves working with<br>turquoise and says that the stone make him more creative and skillful at the<br>bench. Michael makes most of the decorative stamps he uses to make his jewelry<br>by hand from the tempered steel of old car engines. Using old parts from piston<br>rods to valve stems, he carefully cuts designs into the steel using tiny files<br>and other tools to produce his personal stamps. Brought up on the reservation in<br>the village of Pruitt, New Mexico and born to the Meadow People Clan, Michael is<br>also part Apache. Raised primarily by his Grandparents, Michael draws<br>inspiration from the same remote and wild places his Grandmother, a<br>well-respected natural healer, took him to when he was young.
