Introduction Hi! I'm Lisa Newton, and I've been designing and creating jewelry for about seven years now and have loved every minute of it. I'm for the most part "self taught" but I have taken some tutorials and then incorporate my own vision into each. I love how jewelry can create an individual expression of one's self, and how it can create and change mood the moment that it's put on. It's an amazing treasure what jewelry can add to our lives. I guess that's what drives my passion and obsession to create these little objects of desire... I have drawn my inspirations from bits and pieces of the world around me: nature, geometric shapes, textures, colors, the Victorian and Renaissance era...I have also applied some techniques that I learned from talented artist, Eni Oken and Connie Fox, who inspired my intricate wire pendants and coiled jewelry. Thanks to the both of you, for your generous information and tutorials! I live and breathe for the next opportunity to create. It's my true passion and you will see that evident in the amount of time and detail that goes into each intricate design.
