#wearart
I started out a few years ago with a small watercolor paint set, basic brushes and a watercolor paper booklet. My creativity has blossomed from there and I continue to grow as an artist. I am so excited about the creative journey I have traveled thus far and you can be apart of my creative process!
None of what you find in my shop is cookie cutter. All of my earrings start out as single sheets of watercolor paper, hand cut into the desired style or shapes. Those individual cuts are combined into several layers which, once cured, makes the earrings stiff and rigid like wood. Those shapes are sanded down to make smooth sleek edges and then hand-painted into the wearable art you will find in my shop.
I also make beaded earrings and you will find those in my shop as well. I am always looking for odd and different beads to make fun and funky earrings with. I'm partial to wood beads, but use glass beads and natural stones as well.
I strive to create one of a kind, unique jewelry and inspiration for my designs comes from a variety of places. Often times, creative inspiration strikes at the strangest times, but that is when have I created some of my more memorable and favorite pieces.
So, why earrings you might ask? Well, I LOVE EARRINGS! Before I started making them, I used to always look for the most unique earrings I could find, earrings I wouldn't find anyone else wearing. Combined with my love for painting, that all translates into what I have affectionately dubbed my wearable art collection of earrings.
I take pride in designing the earrings in my shop. I pour tons of love, thought and time into each pair. All handmade exclusively by me, the entire process definitely involves patience and is a labor of love, but the end results are one of a kind unique creations.
So please, take a look. I hope something will grab your attention and find its way to your accessory drawer. Check on me and the shop often for more fresh, new and exciting things to come.
Colorfully,
Crystal
