Welcome to my Etsy Shop! Happy Lunar New Year!
I am currently working on new work for Spring/Summer 2023. It has been a bit of a learning curve with enameling silver and I am still trying to work it out. Check JaniceArtJewelry on Instagram for updates in the coming weeks/months.

Times for shipping during regular times:
It takes approximately one week for shipping to the United States from Canada during regular times and I ship with tracking (on jewelry items) which can be tracked from USPS. It takes 2 to 3 weeks to Europe from Canada. I do not offer tracking unless the customer requests and pays for this service which is 30.00 + depending on item and country.

My Journey in Metals
My Background:
I have a background in graphic design and still work in the industry.
My Jewelry Making Story:
I invested in my jewelry studio in 2008, purchasing a water torch and began a journey of finding my aesthetic point of view knowing that I wanted to combine my love of graphic design, pattern and typography into metal jewelry.
My Process:
All of my work is completely fabricated by me from flat sheet, wire and tubing and is produced on a made to order basis. Every piece is a one off so customizations can be done. My designs are created on computer and chemically etched into flat sheet metal. Etching is a technique with origins in printmaking dating back to 15th century Germany. Other texturizing techniques employed are stamping, traditional hand engraving with a graver, roller printing and hammering.
Making Green Jewelry and Social Entrepreneurship:
In 2011, I went to using almost all reclaimed precious metals in my work and switching to a natural pickle. I am an environmentally conscious person, so reducing my footprint happens in the studio where I can. March 2016, I took a class at Mendocino Art Center on Galvanic Etching. This is an alternative to the chemical etch process and uses electricity and battery charger with a solution that less toxic.
In mid 2015, I began, Janice Art Jewelry's "Tree Rings Project", in which a portion of ring sales go to Trees for the Future (trees.org) which plants trees and helps communities.
My Education:
I have attended classes at Revere Academy of Jewelry Arts in San Francisco and Mendocino Art Center in Northern California. In addition, I have also studied jewelry and metal arts at both California State Fullerton and Pasadena City College. I hold a BA in Studio Art from California State University, Fullerton and a diploma in Packaging Design from Humber College, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Where I have Shown:
2013-2015:
• Orange County Creatives, Laguna Beach, California
• La Galeria Gitana, San Fernando, California
• Harriet's General, Culpeper, Virginia
• Mountain Nest Gallery, Black Mountain, North Carolina
2012:
• Manika Jewelry Gallery, San Francisco, California
• Galeria Boca Roja, Mallorca, Spain
Group Shows:

2015 Chocolate and Art Show • Los Angeles, CA
2013 RAW Artist Showcase ENCOMPASS • Orange County, CA
2012 Revere@Manika • Manika Jewelry Gallery, San Francisco, California
Thank you!
