Wink Artisans

Fashion – San Diego

I'm Sol and I live in San Diego. I am an artist, dreamer, designer. I love to create bright, bold and colorful items. I have been a metal artist for the last 5 years creating OOAK jewelry. My themes are Day of the Dead, Sacred Hearts, Frida Kahlo, Virgen de Guadalupe, Nature, Ocean, and Mexican Folk Art. Before that I was a photographer. I'm a sucker for process, textures, layers, and detail intricate work. When I'm not making jewelry, I teach flamenco dance and spend time with my hubby, our three adopted kids and my mom. Materials I like are silver, copper, brass, nickel, beads, leather, textiles, resin, paper, found objects, etc. My metal jewelry has won three local awards (1st, 2nd and 3rd in different categories) at the San Diego County Fair.
