My Progression As A Jewelry Artist: From Steampunk To Pokemon, League, And Geek Jewelry

I’ve been making jewelry for a while now (since 2008), and I decided it’s time to show myself and others the journey, progression, and growth that I have experienced as an artist.

Since the beginning of my artistic journey, I have managed to understand what I love doing and to do what I love, create and participate in various exhibitions and speak about important topics and issues that I love, and all the fantasy that is brought forward in the geek culture.

I had built a brand solely for this and created my own way of making high fanart through jewelry. Enjoy.

Since the beginning of my Artistic journey, I had managed to understand and do what I love, create and participate in various exhibitions and speak about important topics as well as issues that I love such as the geek community and all the fantasy that is brought forward in the geek culture.
I had built a brand solely for this and created my own way of making high fanart through jewelry.

As I embarked on a journey to express my creativity through jewelry, I found inspiration in various artistic themes, including the captivating concept of the seven deadly sins.

This theme resonates with artists across different mediums, and for those interested in exploring its representation, this conceptual photography further illustrates the profound impact these motifs have on art.
