Imagining herself as an artist since her childhood, Andrea has learned to trust her hands, going further on the path of creativity through her work. It’s an ongoing process, and what she calls the “crafty” gene: a genuine need to create, construct, design, and build.

From her experience sewing, along with seamstress and decorating jobs, she has developed an appreciation for the colors and texture of fabrics and materials. Combined with mixed-media art and painting classes, Andrea has enhanced her artistic awareness, adding dimension and perspective within her projects and designs.

Working with ceramics and glazes gives Andrea a new canvas to develop and display her artistic creativity, involving every element that has been a part of her since childhood. With Dandy jewelry, Andrea has discovered a true palette for her handcrafted art.
