Drawing Inspiration from Nature’s Beauty
Welcome to the process behind my nature-inspired jewelry, where organic elements intertwine gracefully. Handcrafted in Fort Collins, Colorado, each piece is a reflection of my deep connection to nature. I design with intention, creating unique pieces that embody the organic beauty of the natural world.
The journey begins with a vision, thoughtfully designing the artwork using a graphic design program. Every detail carries significance, emotion, and story. Each piece captures the tranquility of a forest, the grace of a bird, or the charm of a blooming meadow. This organic beauty is then transferred onto the copper sheet using a unique heat-transfer technique.
Hand-Finished Perfection: Honoring Nature’s Intent
To ensure each piece of nature-inspired jewelry has a smooth and comfortable finish, I hand-file and sand the edges of the metal. I anneal the copper to make it soft and delicately shape it into its final form.
Some pieces undergo further transformation with coloring techniques to highlight intricate details. I apply a protective metal sealer to ensure the colors remain vibrant over time. For those who appreciate the true essence of copper, I offer the option to leave the metal unsealed, allowing it to develop a natural patina.
Safety First: Protecting the Artist, Creating with Passion
Throughout this artistic journey, safety is a top priority. I take every precaution, wearing the necessary Personal Protective Equipment to safeguard my well-being, allowing me to focus on bringing nature’s beauty to life through my art.
Years of dedication and refinement have led to creating jewelry that captures the essence of nature’s wonders in their simplest and most captivating form. I take immense pride in the intricate details and delicate colors that adorn my nature-inspired jewelry creations.
