“I dedicate my song ‘Star’ to Emmanuelle and Carolina and their dogs Eden and Mojo who died recently. I hope they become friends in heaven whatever this is“. EWIAN
❤ ❤ ❤
Yesterday Ewian surprised me with this beautiful dedication that he posted on Twitter…
Thank you Ewian for such great act of kindness! My heart also goes to Emmanuelle.
Mojo was and is my wonderful and unforgettable Star She was already here when I moved from Italy to California she has been my rays of sunshine through the good time and the bad times she was very special and I loved her very much. Mojo left this world on November 2nd 2014 she was 16 years old.
That day was one of the saddest, when I left the vet office it was raining but after 30 minutes that Mojo left this world something superior happened a beautiful sign from above a beautiful full “Double Rainbow” appeared in the sky
I guess was Mojo way to tell us that she passed the rainbow bridge and that she was ok and happy…. ❤
Point Dume is a promontory on the coast of Malibu, California that juts out into the Pacific Ocean. The point, a long bluff, forms the northern end of the Santa Monica Bay. Wikipedia
Fossil Seashell Fragment found at Point Dume
I designed this necklace for Erika Kind as token of our friendship. If you followed our recent posts you know that we met (read my post) in person last Friday here in California it was a great experience. Each piece of Jewelry I design has a story behind it. This one symbolize the beginning of our friendship relate to one of our first conversations that we had when we met, and it was about how much Erika love California, the Ocean and the Beach she said that she love “Point Dume” which happen to be a wonderful place in Malibu where I go often and I love to take beautiful photos like this one of the beach where Point Dume promontory is. This is one of the places where I find precious natural elements like fragments of fossil seashells, stones, driftwood all elements gifted from nature that I treasure and collect for my unique jewelry designs.
Fossil seashells Fragments, Driftwood
The necklace created for Erika has all the elements to symbolize what she love, it represent the Ocean with the natural beauty of a fragment of a Fossil Seashell, a Pearl and her favorite Turquoise stone, the blue color of the stone symbolize the sky and the ocean water, all the elements are wired together creating a keepsake memories pendant with an adjustable leather cord. This is an example of the concept I work with, to create one of a kind Jewelry. I am very happy that Erika love the necklace very much at the point that when I gave to her she got emotional, that was my greatest gift to see the reaction she had it means I made it through her heart giving her happiness and joy…this is one of the reason why I love my work!
It is very nice to see Erika wearing this necklace knowing that she will treasure it!
I also created for this meet up occasion some new stackable bracelets, the kind that more you have the better is!
I created one for Marissa, one for Corinne and a new one for Me!
This one was created for Corinne made with natural Blue Quartz and Yellow Citrine Crystal.
Corinne has already a necklace that I previously made for her and this bracelet is a matching!
The Pink Quartz bracelet was created for Marissa made with natural Rose Quartz and smocky Crystals.
Rose Quartz is also known as the “Love Stone” and emit positive and protective energy.
I didn’t know Marissa too well, I wasn’t sure about her taste but she loved it!
This Bracelet was created for Me with a shaped Turquoise stone, Pearls and smocky crystals.

“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.

This post is my testimony for a one of a kind event. Yesterday, I had the privilege to attend one of the best concerts featuring legendary Joe Satriani and Steve Vai. Also performing was Tosin Abasi from Animals as Leaders! It was a magical evening where some of the best guitarrist in the world were playing their amazing music and gave us the gift to see them performing together. This concert also had a great cause. It was a benefit concert in support of Cliff Cultreri their good friend and music-industry veteran. Cultreri is the A&R executive who “discovered” Satriani, Vai and other great artists while working at Relativity Records and Koch Entertainment. Cultreri is suffering from a host of auto-immune and connective-tissue disorders simultaneously attacking his immune system, it is a 1 in 100 million occurrence causing severe pain and debilitating.

“WHEN NATURE MEETS HUMANS” Digital Portraits Collection
Portrait #5
– Light and Darkness –
In Today post I am very excited to share with you another creation I have been working on. This is Portrait #5 part of my experimental Digital-Art Portraits Collection. I love working on this concept “When Nature Meet Humans” it is always challenging and fascinating for me to search for the amazing photos that inspire my creations. I gave this Portrait the title of “Light and Darkness”.
I like to experiment new ideas and concepts that are helping me to evolve and grow with my art and creativity. I always loved to work in Digital and apply my Art to this “Techno-media” (I just made up this definition of Art). One of my passion is Photography and I like to work with photos, manipulating images blending and layering them being able to give life to a new created photo as result of many. Here if you are a new follower or you missed my other posts you can see my Digital Art . I also made a Gallery for the “Nature Meets Humans Portraits Collection” you can see the other portraits here.
I am very inspired and happy to work on this unique Collection of Artistic one of a kind Digital Portraits. I love to thank all of you for sharing my Art and for all the great feedbacks and comments left on this Blog. Your presence means a lot to me is always encouraging and motivating to keep going on evolving and experimenting with my creativity.
This portrait it is the #5 of this Collection, the title is “Light and Darkness” I like to give a positive message saying that “There is always light after the dark”.
I love the deep contrast and the blue color fusing in the black darkness and the lighting created by the full moon bringing out the reality of the eyes over the other nature elements in the background. This portrait was very intriguing and inspiring to create.
To create this portrait and all the other ones I used beautiful photos found on Pinterest most of the images used are not my own Photography (I apologize but I haven’t found the Photographers names to give Credits if anyone recognize their photos please let me know).
I love this idea to mix Nature with Humans and create some unique and very different kinds of portraits…This Collection is created mostly for my own Artistic purpose and to share with you some of my Digital-Art abilities.
If you’re interested in purchase a custom and unique portrait like the ones in this Collection you can, I will create it exclusively for you, using your own personal memories photos, I will create your own personal and unique custom Digital Art Portrait, for info and details please contact me.
In 2015 the autumnal equinox falls onSeptember 23 wish you all a wonderful Fall Season and…today…
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Me!
