JevaDesignz's Profile

Bio

I am new to Etsy...but I have been an artist my entire life! My work is also sold in a great gift shop in Hanalei, Kauai called On The Road to Hanalei and in a boutique in St. Louis, MO called Melrose to Manhattan. I have sold on ebay for many years as well and I have lots of great feedback.

My work is influenced by my early years in Arizona where my mother represented the handcrafts of the Native American artisans, as well as my years growing up in Laguna Beach. My mom and daughter work with me today on most of my designs.

I was born in Arizona where I lived until my family moved to the artisan mecca of Laguna Beach, California when I was 16 years old. My mom and dad had an art gallery in Laguna Beach for many years, and my dad was one of the select jewelry artists who participated in the world-renowned Sawdust Festival and Art-A-Faire Festival.

More than 30 years later, my designs are a symbol of my passion for the many artisan influences I have been fortunate to be surrounded by during my life.

I am a Registered Member of SRAJD (Self-Representing Artist Jewlery Designers), Member 1032.
