I started to work graphically on this blog at first as website only in August 2013.
I wanted to create mostly a portfolio website for my artistic creations and display my Art. I enjoyed creating all the graphics collages and images you see on here like the header image on the front page. Life events came on my way and I had to take a break for a while.
I never posted as blog anything until this year on the 03/24/2015 with my “New Update” very short post, from that day as today over only 2 months later I enjoyed this Blog very much!
I came across amazing people creative artists, musicians, writers, other jewelry makers and amazing photographers it is very inspiring be able to share thoughts on a daily basis with amazing people I am so grateful for all the amazing journey here in this great community. Many of you become friends which I love to interact with.
I know 50 followers are not 500 or 5.000 or 50.000 but it has the same meaning to me!
It is the start of something great coming that can only evolve more and more….
Enjoy with me as you will come along the way of my journey….

Digital Art – Life of Courage and Truth
“Life of Courage and Truth”
During the past days I have been working on several Artistic projects beside focusing on this Blog!
I have been working on Photography and Digital Art, Sketches and my Jewelry. Last week I did bring to life a new design I create hoops earrings with amazonite and red coral gemstones. I named the earrings “Life of Courage and Truth” I like to write little stories for every jewelry I create. If you are one of my followers you probably remember my post otherwise you can read it here.
This is how my creativity extends from a starting hand drawing sketch, to other visual way of expression. I had several visions for this design. Created and born as jewelry sketch that become a tangible product bringing to life the beautiful earrings, and turned them in several photographs that I have been staging and shooting. Right now one of the photos inspired me to become this interesting Digital Art painting…creativity never ends!
New Design – Life of Courage and Truth
This week has been pretty full of nice things, I had new amazing followers, I have been nominated with 3 Blogger Awards, I am thrilled and I really appreciate and I am grateful to anyone that included me in these nominations! I have accepted all of them of course, but I had not time yet to complete my acceptance for “The Creative Blogger” and “Liebster blog Award” I will soon!
During the past days I have been working on several Artistic projects beside focusing on this Blog!
I have been working on Photography, Digital Art, new sketches and my Jewelry, bringing to life a new design “Hoops earrings” I like hoops I wear them all the time and I love how this design turned out they looks amazing on!
This design feature a large Silver wired, hammered and forged hoops having a charm made with natural powerful gemstones I used Amazonite, Red Coral, and faceted Crystal. I love the combination of colors of these three gemstones and their great meanings.
Amazonite takes the name from the Amazon river it is the stone of Courage and Truth. This gemstone it is used in Jewelry from way long time since the Mesopotamian Cultures. The wonderful light blue-green color remind the water it is soothing and calming for the soul. Emits powers of strong energy. Was often used as talisman for protection. This beautiful stone is believed to be used from the mythical Tribe of the courageous and strong Amazonian women warriors.
Red Coral the beautiful Red Coral gemstone symbolize Life and bring messages of peace within self, emits positive energy and protection.
Crystal there is an interesting message for clear crystals and it is that Clear Crystal has the property to amplifier the powers of other gemstones combined with it, in this case it will empower more the Amazonite and Coral.
I named the hoop earrings “Life of Courage and Truth”
I always love to read your comments….
Have a wonderful weekend! :-)
Creativity and new designs
During this week I have been working on two beautiful custom orders!
I love the process to create a new design, from the starting idea, to the sketches to the end, every time it is a new challenge that I like to address at the best of my ability.
I had a request to design and create jewels matching with other designs I previously made. Most of my designs are created with a combination of gemstones, metals, leather and more natural elements. This way all my creations allow the possibility to combine and stack multiple jewels together.
I give my customers the ability to create time after time their on set. Each design is unique also when it is worn by itself.
My first request was for a pair of dangle earrings with Rose Quartz and Mother of Pearl matching with the Rose quartz heart necklace…
The Rose Quartz heart necklace to match…
My sketch was inspired by the shape of a half heart.
I love how my design turned out, the earrings are just like I had vision them in my mind.
Earrings are Limited Edition and avaiable for sale only as Custom Order in my Etsy Shop.
My second custom order request will be in my next post…
New design – Strength and Harmony tribal bohemian necklace
I just finished to bring to life my new design!
One more item for my “Among Nature” jewelry collection.
I have been working on this design for the last couple of days. I don’t let go public a design until I am totally satisfied with it. I named this necklace “Strength and Harmony” because the beautiful meanings of the Agate gemstones.
I wanted to create something different and unusual, my design future a vertical silver wired 6″ long pendant made with two clear rice shape Agate and a rectangle shape “red lace” Agate combined with Czech beautiful faceted crystals. This pendant has a finish touch with an hanging wired piece of authentic Mediterranean red coral and a crystal.
A tan color suede leather is wired around the pendant, giving to this necklace a tribal and bohemian accent. The leather is knotted and it is adjustable in lenght wearable long or short eighter way looks beautiful.
I love this necklace!
It would be made to order on my Etsy Shop and only in “Limited Edition” as one of a kind because each necklace will be slightly different due to the nature of the gemstones, they are all different and beautiful.
This necklace is a stackable with other coming soon new designs…
