Lapis Beach

About the Artist:  "I have been interested in all aspects of art, since I was young. I studied drawing when I was in elementary school; painting and jewelry making in college. I have drawn pet portraits, painted furniture and murals, dabbled in faux finishes, hand painted glass and even do professional face painting occassionally. About 15 years ago, when I was in graduate school, my grandmother re-introduced me to knitting and I haven't put the needles down since.

I was a "closet" knitter for years. Back in the day... it was not as popular as it is now. I loved new yarns and patterns and even began designing my own patterns for sweaters. I never knit a pair of socks in my life. I liked big chunky needles and big chunky yarns.

About 4 years ago, all of that changed. I picked up a pair of tiny tiny needles, some rayon and some beads and was hooked. What first started as gifts for family and friends has now developed into Lapis Beach Jewelry."

Arctida

Statement from the Artist:  "I live on the beautiful and dramatic East coast of Sweden with my loving husband and our sweet baby girl. The creative studio of Arctida is situated in the 750 year old city of Stockholm in Sweden. However, the inspiration for my jewelry is taken from much farther north where I was born and grew up, from the polar circle all the way up to the North Pole. The name Arctida refers to the hypothetical polar continent that is believed to exist in geological past of our planet.

The northern nature with its crisp polar nights and gleaming Northern lights is the main inspiration source for of all of my art. Each individual piece of my jewelry is created with the ideas and influences from the world of the lone Scandinavian mountains that astonish with their untouched landscape and wandering flock of wild reindeer, then on to the even more remote, uninhabited world of ice, populated only by the seals and polar bears.

Through this source of inspiration as well as my interest in natural science (I work as a molecular biologist/Cancer researcher at my day job) I am able to create unique pieces of art with both inner and outer power and genuine "one of a kind" – design."

Linda Sudimack

Statement from the Artist:  "I make hand crafted jewelry, using sterling, copper, brass, gold and gemstones. I love to move metal and make it sing. I also love to put unusual gemstone beads together and see where they take me. I'm usually a member of the less is more club, although I do occasionally forget that! Most of my jewelry is all occassion, and can be worn anywhere at any time.  The majority of my work is "one of a kind" - it is constantly changing and being added to. I am way too prolific and there is always more available than what is listed in my shop.  So if you don't see something that you like, e mail me and we'll see what we can find. Most pieces have matching earrings that I rarely get posted...or they can be made, just ask.
"IMAGINATION TO WEAR" and "THE WIRE LEADS, I BUT FOLLOW" are the mottos for my jewelry. I love what I am doing and I hope that that feeling is always reflected in my work."  To visit Linda's shop and see all of her creations, click on the post title above.
