"A is for Airedale" brooch

Shop

 For all you Airedale lovers, I'm happy to announce the launch of my AireWear© line of Airedale - themed multimedia jewelry. Each piece is an original piece of art - designed, created and signed by me. AireWear© jewelry combines my expertise as a fine artist and graphic designer with my background in jewelry making/metalworking plus my earliest work in polymer clay sculpture. There is a definite modernized retro feel to the work, as well, that reflects my love of the era of the Airedale's greatest public popularity - the Art Deco era of the 1920s and 1930s.

    Each item of AireWear© art jewelry is composed of a combination of polymer clay, semi-precious gemstones, embossed and hand-painted faux leather Airedales or original Airedale paintings. The findings are either silver or silver-plated (or gold-plated).  They may be embellished with various charms, mirrors or found objects. In keeping with the Airedale spirit, whimsy also rules my design choices, so a keen sense of fun is included with piece of AireWear© art jewelry! 

  All AireWear© art jewelry comes packaged in a spiffy AireWear© jewelry box. All prices include shipping. Please e-mail me @ leslieapple@me.com to purchase or for more information.

"Art is magic. The creative process is always an adventure. There is that special moment when the divine spark appears. It's such a thrill! That is what I love Best about the process. After all this time, I STILL don't know how it happens..."
