Inside the Studio

Here’s a glimpse inside my sketchbook. One of these designs was recently brought to life.

I came across a Spanish phrase that stayed with me: joyería de autor. I love it because it does not translate neatly into English. It speaks to one-of-a-kind pieces, contemporary work, artful and handmade. The literal meaning is “jewelry made by the author,” and something about that feels especially romantic as I lean more deeply into storytelling and reflection.

The designs above hold both nostalgia and a desire to explore alternative materials. They feel like a return and a discovery at once.

That is all for now, hope all’s been well.

Many hugs,

Caitlin
