I absolutely love designs that show expression or feeling. It creates the sense that the artist or person who created the image or design has a story to tell and that keeps me interested. I love an image or design that tells a story and these types of images or designs give me inspiration to create something of my own to tell my story from my perspective and from my side as a student/teenager.

Dislikes

One thing I don't like is simple and too complicated designs. I hate these types of designs simply because there is either too much to look at or too little to look at. There should be a balance in every design so that the eye does not get tired of looking at it but rather, the i should be able to see the design in many other different angles.

This is what I don't like because these shoes are way too high, even though some look comfortable to wear. Anyone wearing these shoes could easily hurt themselves badly. I prefer shoes that are comfortable to wear, can be worn at any time and are suitable for parties or any formal function.

I absolutely love this dress, simply for the fact that its so beautiful. It has my favorite color, which is blue and it also has simplicity in the style of the dress.When it comes to dresses, simplicity is what i love and it should also compliment your natural features as a woman. This dress is an example of how I am as a person. Something to wear to any extravagant event or royal party.

I love this jewellery piece by Shimansky because it is functional for any occasion, especially for engagement and wedding occasions. There is absolutely no setting for the diamond in this ring, therefore, the ring itself holds the diamond. Its absolutely beautiful and a wonder to look at.

Many designers come up with great ideas and designs that inspire other people to create their own line. In this case, Shimansky has inpired me to create beautiful jewellery but it should also have practicality and function to the jewellery piece. beauty is in the eye of the beholder, as it was once said, therefore, when you look at this jewellery piece, look carefully and you might like what you see

This ring is too simple. If I would like a ring, it should be something to say about, not to just look at. Maybe that is just me. What do you think?

This ring i consider to be nice but i would not take it. I think the metal is too thick and sharp edges could ultimately turn blunt over time. an inscription would have made it a very beautiful ring to give as an engagment ring or, if you prefer, a wedding band. Practicality, simplicity, functionality and beauty are the few things that I look for in a jewellery piece.

artist statement

I am the type of person that has a creative mind. My jewelry will reflect what I am about. I love color but I also love a variety of different things. I love old and new things and I also love exploring new things. I love travelling and I am adventurous and out-going. My love for jewelry will be shown in the type of jewelry I will make and the way I think as an individual. I have also always thought of myself as a person of morals and values and I keep these standards high for myself so that I achieve the best results, not only for me but also for future potential clients. I hope to open my own business in the future and go into partnership with someone I can trust. I also want to give back to my community in offering workshops and giving back to charity of my choice one day. It is my huge dream to help the community in which I live in to alleviate poverty and make the world a better place.
