Discovering Aroluna


 Irene, of Aroluna was born and raised in Argentina but now resides with her family in sunny Florida. She takes a very sensual approach to jewelry making and in fact describes her passion in those terms, "I love asymmetry, circular forms and making pieces that are sensual and bold, almost with life of their own, you can feel their subtle weight, their sound, their touch."

         Ra Necklace, Irene's signature link



"I am attracted by circular lines and asymmetry; my pieces are rustic and organic, sturdy but smooth. Often times they are bold, but I always want them to be perfectly comfortable, able to become part of the person if she or he wants to wear them at any times, and defy the passing of time." -Irene


some of Irene's lovely earring designs

Irene's work looks deceptively simple, but this type of metal work actually requires lots of practice to get really good at it, and irene is really good at it! Plus, her unique designs are fresh and totally timeless, and many can be worn by men as well as women.

Irene hard at work at her bench

where the magic happens...

  
        You can visit Irene at Aroluna on etsy and find all kinds of goodies there.
Hey, isn't Mother's Day just around the corner...?

Weekly Challenge Winner for March 18-24


Curated by Peylu and featuring Intres, Quercus Silver, 88 Editions, Sarah Robin, Anna Lela, Sarah Giannobile, Ciaffi, Marble, RedorGrayArt, Best Art Studios 2, JK Photography, Lovely Home Idea, Niu Taller

Up-cycled treasure

Find something someone's tossed away, pick up a cool rock, get an idea, make a piece of art. Then build a business around it. That's what these creatives are doing...

Paulaart for example, using cast off metal pipe and scrap to create everything from vases and flowers, to napkin rings and clocks

or LizzieJoeDesigns, where Jennifer knows just what to do with those pesky wine corks that just keep piling up around the house...

How about being able to see something new in something old like these up-cycled dresses put together by Jana at MyFairMaiden?

or find something tossed aside and make it your canvas as you'll find Fleur doing at NYhop.

Pey and Anatol, at folkARTvision find all kinds of bits and pieces to fashion their heartfelt assemblages.

and here's a beautiful use of something that often goes unnoticed underfoot. Elaine of RedorGrayArt, takes rocks and creates beautiful stone paperweights embellished with twine.

Reduce, reuse and recycle is practiced here!

Little Treasures


Ceramic artist Monica Tort Bori lives and works in Pamplona, the capitol city of Navarre, in Spain. I thought I'd feature her work today on the occasion of her birthday! In her etsy shop, NuiTaller, you'll find lovely little gems created in porcelain...

Such as these sweet little brooches.

or these graphic statement rings.

 and if brooches and rings aren't what you're looking for at the moment, check out Monica's pendants and earrings, I'm sure you'll find something you can't live without!


HAPPY BIRTHDAY MONICA!
