SHARON MACLEOD Contemporary Art Jewelry
 

ABOUT THE JEWELRY:

Working with an unexpected combination of materials, I create jewelry that starts with my own graphic art that I print on thin paper, which is then meticulously laminated to various sizes of small tubing, and then assembled with a variety of materials including polymer clay, glass, metal, and rubber. Transforming non-precious, sometimes industrial materials into colorful, richly patterned art jewelry is an ongoing exploration. Because of the nature of the process, no two pieces are exactly alike. A made to order bracelet may vary slightly from the pictured item, but will be very similar.

CARE OF BRACELETS: The bracelets are made to be as durable as possible considering one element is paper. They will last for years if worn GENTLY. Multiple layers of a polymer coating make them water resistant but immersion in water should be avoided. Exposure to extreme heat may also be damaging.

CUSTOM ORDERS: Most of the bracelet styles can be made in most of the colors and patterns. Please ask.

ABOUT ME:

Originally trained as a graphic artist, I've been a full-time jewelry artist for over 20 years. In 1988 I made my escape from the city and moved to the woods of southwest Washington state where I live with my husband and share my barn studio with our cat and an elusive squirrel.
