Dawn Mansfield Rockton, IL Beaded Jewelry

In creating my jewelry pieces my greatest influence is the beauty of nature; from the color of autumn leaves, the gently curved waves of the ocean as it meets with the texture of sand and seashells on the beach, to the glow of the moon shining through the trees. I also draw inspiration from Victorian, Native American, and African beadwork. I gather beautiful materials and combine these influences with my contemporary taste to create my own eclectic style.

As a self-taught artisan with no formal training in art of any kind, my style, use of color, and sense of design is purely instinctive. I create what I perceive as beautiful.
