SplendorR

Accessories – Washington, D.C.

I cannot recall the exact date that I became interested in the arts or specifically jewelry making. I can remember that my family had the earliest influence on my affinity to be creative. At a young age, I can remember watching my mother make jewelry and being in awe. I think that what I enjoy most about jewelry is it\'s ability to both decorate and communicate. In other words, jewelry serves as an ornament for our body while also providing a medium for self expression. That being said, I have been making jewelry since I was a young girl, and have been selling it for the past 4 years. I have been predominately selling at local craft festivals and fashion shows in the area. I chose the name SplendorR to represent my work based on the definition of Splendor, which means, \"great and impressive beauty\". I provide jewelry that is colorful, fun, and one of a kind. In addition, I also make custom pieces upon request. I am interested in using art as a medium to provoke conversation. For my jewelry, this means incorporating statements into my jewelry that encourage self love or the pursuit of knowledge.
