From a young age, I was passionate about art and design. In 1922, I began my graphic design studies in Caracas, Venezuela, specializing in advertising and marketing. Starting in the 2000s, I embarked on a journey to explore many countries, an experience that allowed me to travel and appreciate the uniqueness of each culture I encountered. It was on the island of Borneo, Indonesia, that I fell in love with gemstones and jewelry. In 2016, I settled in France and obtained a diploma in gemology from Gem-A, the School of Gemstones in Paris. Two years later, I discovered gouache, a traditional drawing technique in French high jewelry. In 2018, I took jewelry drawing courses in Paris, and finally, in 2020, in the midst of a health crisis, I decided to become a custom jewelry designer and gouache artist.

Nature, color, and movement often influence my jewelry, drawings, and gouaches. My Venezuelan origins play a significant role in this! I emphasize color and free forms. As for learning the French culture, it, in turn, adds an elegant touch to my creations.

GOUACHÉS

Gouache was a 'love at first sight' for me; it captivated me because it is a meticulously detailed and beautiful form of drawing. It represents an almost photographic projection of the materials, types of stones, colors, and dimensions of the jewelry even before it is made. All my gouaches are carefully hand-painted with brushes.

ILLUSTRATIONS

Creating illustrations has always been a tremendous passion for me. They are an excellent means of expression because they have the power to evoke emotions in those who observe them. In my work, I like to take risks and opt for original conceptual artworks using techniques such as gouache, watercolor, or pencil.

CUSTOM-MADE JEWELRY

Each project is unique and exclusive. Creating custom jewelry allows me to participate in every stage of the manufacturing process while taking into account my clients' ideas, requests, and preferences. We live in a constantly changing world where everything moves extremely fast. Custom design allows me to take the time to listen to my clients' desires, give them the best advice, and thus create high-quality pieces with strong emotional content.

STRINGING NATURAL PEARLS

This creative journey has led me to offer jewelry made with natural pearls. I take great pleasure in stringing or restringing necklaces and bracelets, with or without knots, as well as transforming and repairing broken or damaged necklaces. Sometimes I think that being a stringing artist is a real blessing, because I don't just string necklaces... I also string extraordinary stories.

Whether you are an individual, a brand, a jeweler, a gemstone dealer, or an art lover, I would be delighted to assist you with your creative projects.
