Since I am still in the middle of setting up my metal studio again, (I move alot) I've been working on these little felt brooches to keep my hands busy!
My name is Vanessa. I like to dance in my PJ's. I love to move, travel and explore. I have my own business making jewellery. I love arts and crafts and I'm afraid of zombies. I was an English teacher in Korea for 7 years and just moved back to Canada. But, there are at least 87 more countries that I want to visit. I like good wine, good coffee and cheese, but not always in that order. I love beaches no matter what season. I collect Shiney things. This is a journal of all my adventures.
I started making jewellery when I was 20, my first year at Nova Scotia College of Art and Design University, and I fell in love with it. I love shiney things, I love making things and I love process of starting with a simple piece of material and creating something beautiful. I graduated in 2002 with a BFA and went on to work at a couple of different jewellery comapanies, building my skill in everything from simple fabrication and repair work to setting $10,000 diamonds. Now, 10 years later, I'm on my way to creating my own company- making my own designs, in my own studio, and I am still loving it. It's my passion. my dream. my life. Hope you enjoy my work in progress! you can contact me at shmookitty@gmail.com
