My inspiration today is the wild world of
Glam Rock. I find that music and visual arts often go hand in hand, one inspiring the other. I, for one, am never without some form of audio stimulation going on in the background while I make jewelry or paint. I began forming an interest in 70's glam while studying fine arts in college. Artists like David Bowie, Roxy Music, T-Rex, and Sparks soon became staples in my studio. I found the genre so... well,
glamorous that it leant itself to the creation of many an oversized canvas bursting with color and attitude (not to mention having a huge influence on my wardrobe choices!).

The androgynous, otherworldly aesthetic of glam rock has always translated well to jewelry for me. As soon as I throw on a New York Dolls record, I am ready to create a glittery necklace abundant in
chains and
sparkly rocks. Here are some super glammed-up jewelry making elements, ready to be whipped up into a rock 'n' roll masterpiece!
What kind of music inspires you to make your best jewelry creations? We'd love to hear from you, as always!
Bead on,
Andrea

I love Smooth Jazz, so I think that is why most of my creations are on the softer side and not so abstract like regular Jazz or wild like New Orleans Jazz. Although there are a few times when I have gone down the abstract and wild side in creating.
