While sipping a delicious Peppermint Mocha one of my favorite, we enjoyed our great time together talking a lot, and laughing a lot like friends that know each other from years and years, it was amazing how we all felt the same beautiful way!
Erika is a wonderful soul and I am so happy that I had the opportunity to meet her in person since she live in Europe!
Also Marissa and Corinne are such wonderful ladies but they are here in CA and we may have more chances to get together again!

Thank you Erika for your visit to California and the idea of this meeting. A fantastic opportunity for all of us. We hope to repeat this again soon and we are looking forward to your next visit to California.

When a Sketch turn Alive…

November 4, 2015 Carolina Russo

“AMONG NATURE” Jewelry Collection 2015
Jewelry Inspired by Nature

During the past days I have been thinking a variety of Artistic projects ideas and new experiments!
Today I like to share a Design that I created few months ago. I love the whole process to create a new design, from the starting idea, to the sketches, to the end. Every design it is a new challenge that I like to address at the best of my ability. Most of my designs are created with a combination of natural gemstones, metals, leather and more found natural elements. This way all my creations allow the possibility to combine and stack multiple jewels together.

This is my sketch that inspired a half heart shaped earrings, the wire has been forged and hammered to shape perfectly to my drawing. I used a round faceted Pink Quartz stone and a round Mother of Pearl bead and silver.

Silver or Copper wire are some of my usual metals to work with.

“LOVE” – Rose Quartz is a natural gemstone known as the Love Stone…

this beautiful crystal has natural healing power and emits strong vibrations of unconditional love. The energy that emits clear and purifies, opening the heart to promote love in any situations. Wearing jewelry with rose quartz helps you to feel self-worth love, is calming and relaxing and protect from negativity….

I like Rose Quartz stones the lovely pale pink color and the translucent transparency inspire my designs creating jewelry that’s connects with the beautiful natural energy and vibrations of this stone.

This design was custom ordered from my client to match with this heart necklace I previously made for her, as you can see the idea of a half heart is a great match with this pendant.

My work is made as Custom Order can be purchased and Ordered here on this Blog or on my Etsy Shop.

If you are interested in my designs don’t hesitate to Contact me ✿⊱

I hope that you enjoyed reading about the process of my work!
Always I love to read your awesome comments!
Thank you for sharing my Art!

Peace

November 3, 2015November 3, 2015 Carolina Russo

PEACE

a precious word I have been thought
from the day I was born

a word made of many words
a word made of many colors
a word made of many thoughts

a word to be shared

a word that rhyme with love
and acceptance

find harmony inside yourself
to walk peacefully during your life path
with enlightenment

love yourself to love one another
open your mind to freedom
and mantain it possible in this world.

Don’t let it go out…U2 “Song For Someone”

August 31, 2015August 31, 2015 Carolina Russo

U2 are and have been my favorite band since I was teen ager.
I had once the privilege to attend one of their unforgettable concerts when I was in Italy they came to Naples my native City the Stadium was sold out it was a beautiful experience! I would love to see them again. But today I came across this beautiful song where illustrator and photographer Matt Mahurin directs this visual meditation on ‘Song For Someone’, from U2’s latest album Songs of Innocence.

I love the lyrics beautiful words very healing inspiring a song for who need hope looking forward to the light…
I hope that you enjoy it! Don’t let it go out…

Here is the video posted from U2 Facebook I hope you can see it!

U2 “Song For Someone”

You’ve got a face not spoiled by beauty
I have some scars from where I’ve been
You’ve got eyes that can see right through me
You’re not afraid of anything they’ve seen

I was told that I would feel
Nothing the first time
I don’t know how these cuts heal
But in you, I’ve found a right

If there is a light
You can always see
And there is a world
We can always be
If there is a dark
That we shouldn’t doubt
And there is a light
Don’t let it go out
And this is a song
A song for someone
This is a song
A song for someone

You let me into a conversation
A conversation only we could make
You’re breaking into my imagination
Whatever’s in there is yours to take

I was told that I would feel
Nothing the first time
You were so long to heal
But this could be the night

If there is a light
You can always see
And there is a world
We can always be
If there is a dark
Within and without
And there is a light
Don’t let it go out
And this is a song
A song for someone
This is a song
A song for someone

And I’m a long way
From your hill or cavalry
And I’m a long way
From where I was, where I need to be
If there is a light you can always see
And there is a world we can always be
If there is a kiss I stole from your mouth
And there is a light, don’t let it go out
Songwriters: CLAYTON, ADAM / EVANS, DAVE / HEWSON, PAUL DAVID / MULLEN, LARRY.
