Each week the Art Bead Scene features a Designer of the Week. One of our editors picks her favorite from the Monthly Challenge entries. This week’s winner is Sharyl McMillian-Nelson
Here’s what ABS Editor Marie-Noel Voyer-Cramp had to say about this piece:
“As soon as I saw these earrings I felt they represented the chosen artwork perfectly! They have such a wonderful Asian feel to them without being overwhelmingly Asian. Beautiful enameled pieces that reflect the Style that is present in the painting with its colour and filigree. Wonderful!”
Marie is a Canadian jewelry designer and ephemera tile creator living in beautiful Calgary Alberta at the foot of the Canadian Rocky Mountains. You can read more about her work on her Skye Jewels Blog. You can purchase her jewelry in her Skye Jewels Etsy shop and her pendants and a handful of handmade findings in her More Skye Jewels supply shop.
