| About the artist
Hi, I’m Karyn and welcome to my website www.flowerbombjewellery.com.
To get to this point has been a fantastic and memorable journey in my creative life. I have met some wonderful people and developed life long friendships, which I will treasure forever.
What started out as a hobby has grown into an obsession and pursuit of personal expression, which I know many, many people can relate to. All I can say is “Thank You God” for electricity, as my midnight oil would have run out years ago!
I have a background in mosaics and use my knowledge from this experience when designing.
I find inspiration in just about anything, hey the world is a big place and just being in it is inspirational enough. Just looking at a beautiful sunset can make me want to race to my beads or glass and create something. I like to surround myself with colour and use a “ What If?” attitude when designing. Its nice knowing that when a piece is purchased that the person feels the item chosen was made for her alone. Lets face it, what two sunsets are exactly alike?
The uniqueness of one-off pieces is foremost in my mind when creating, with both the beads and the Dichroic Glass. With my Dichroic designs, I find a freedom with the range of colours that is totally awe-inspiring, and to work with this medium is amazing. I love the unique contrast the glass is known for and the fact that even I find it impossible to recreate the same piece twice. No two pieces are ever alike and its brilliance is so hard to photograph that no photo can ever capture the beauty of Dichroic Glass . All my pieces are fired numerous times and annealed to guarantee a strong and reliable piece of jewellery.
The person who finally owns that individual item is assured that their purchase is durable and long lasting. It is amazing that with one pendant you can wear it with a wide selection of clothing from your wardrobe. I make my own cords so that a majority of my Dichroic Pendants can be interchangeable and worn with either cords or a chain.
Thank you for looking at my site and have fun browsing my unique collection.
Cheers Karyn
