A little buffet of my mixed media work, from past to present. 🎨

It’s always hard to look at your own work and see the progress, but I hope that growth shows over the years!

Sketching and painting have been part of me since I was 3 years old. But when I discovered that jewelry could be artistic, contemporary, and push boundaries, I was immediately hooked.

One of the first rings I ever made was a spinning globe ring. When it went on to be featured in an exhibition, it gave me that feeling that this was something I was meant to do. 🌎

Studying mixed media has taught me to think outside the box when it comes to jewelry design, exploring new materials, textures, and forms. I’m grateful for how college has helped me grow as an artist and designer.

Now that I’ve graduated, I’m pursuing my Jewelry Design & Technology degree at GIA. This is the final stretch of my educational journey (unless I get the itch for a master’s 😂).

I’ve been building my career while in school, but once I finish GIA, it’s a different story. I’m ready to hit the ground running, go all in, and finally give my career the time and energy I’ve been working toward for years. I’m proud of how far I’ve come, but even more excited about what’s next! ✨

What’s one creative skill you learned early in life that still influences what you do today?

From heirloom to high craft. ✨

Every single piece in this collection was born from my VIP client’s own gold and gemstones, completely transformed across a long period of time of relentless bench work. It’s funny how easy it is to underestimate the hours until you’re deep in the grit of making—melting, refining, and giving raw materials a second life.

This collection brought together every corner of my practice:
• Sculptural pieces hand-carved in wax and cast
• Heavy, textured elements melted down and forged straight at the anvil
• Earthy, raw textures pulled straight from sand casting
• A skull & bones narrative carved and set to life
• And a milestone custom piece engineered in SolidWorks CAD while mastering the software

I’d normally bust out my camera for a proper professional shoot, but juggling a full scholarship at GIA alongside working full-time means carving out that extra time is impossible right now—so these iPhone shots will have to do the talking!

Endless clean-up, filing, precision stone setting, and final polish later… we’re finally at the finish line. So proud of the stamina and heart poured into every single one of these.

I never really shared this publicly, but the Origins Collar Necklace was originally designed for visionary filmmaker Ava DuVernay Ava DuVernay

Before anything else, I want to thank my colleague, Tamika Lamison Tamika Lamison —an NAACP Image Award and Emmy Award-winning filmmaker—for believing in my work and graciously introducing my work to Ava. That introduction became the inspiration for one of the most meaningful pieces I’ve ever created, and it’s something I’ll always be grateful for.

As I reflected on Ava’s body of work, I kept coming back to the stories she tells—stories that honor history, amplify voices that deserve to be heard, and remind us of the resilience of those who came before us. I wanted to create a piece that embodied that same spirit.

It took me nearly two months to handcraft this one-of-a-kind sculptural collar from start to finish. Every curve, texture, and stone was intentionally placed to symbolize strength, ancestry, and self-expression.

Inspired by nature and ancient cultures, the Origins Collar was forged by fire using 14K yellow gold-plated brass and sterling silver, then adorned with rose-cut multi-colored sapphires, rhodolite garnets, white topaz, and freshwater pearls. The organic textures represent the beauty that emerges through time, transformation, and perseverance.

More than a statement necklace, this piece is a tribute to legacy—the people whose courage and sacrifices made our own journeys possible.

I’m still incredibly proud of this design, and I hope that one day it finds the opportunity to tell its story in the way it was always intended.

Swipe to see the process photos behind the making of this one-of-a-kind piece—from raw metal to the finished Origins Collar.

Some designs become jewelry.

Others become stories you can wear.

Y’all got me into the Top 5 for The People’s Artist, presented by Johnny Depp. 😭❤️

Honestly… thank you feels too small for what I’m feeling right now.

Thank you for showing up for me every single day. Thank you for voting, sharing, encouraging me, believing in me, and reminding me why community matters so much.

To even make it this far is more than I could have asked for, and I’m incredibly proud to stand in the Top 5 among so many talented artists.

At this stage of the competition, I also want to be transparent with all of you. Realistically, competitions like this become very nuanced because public voting also comes with the option to purchase votes. While I understand it supports charity, I personally do not want anyone spending beyond their means or feeling pressured to financially contribute on my behalf.

Please take care of yourselves and prioritize the things you and your families need first. Truly.

If you happen to remember to vote daily and want to continue supporting organically, I appreciate that more than you know. I believe deeply in the power of community, and honestly, getting this far through genuine support already feels like a win to me.

No matter what happens next, this experience has reminded me that art has the power to connect people in beautiful and unexpected ways.

And for that, I’m endlessly grateful. ❤️

I’m incredibly grateful for everyone who supported me throughout this experience. Entering this competition was outside of my comfort zone because I’m much more used to juried exhibitions, where finalists and winners are chosen by a panel. Public voting was a completely new experience for me.

When I realized votes could also be purchased, I had my hesitations — though I absolutely respect it, especially since it supports charity. Personally, I wanted this journey to feel organic and rooted in genuine support from family, friends, peers, and people who truly connected with my work, without anyone feeling obligated to spend money for me.

That’s why this means so much. Every vote, share, message, and word of encouragement reminded me how powerful real community is. 🤍

We made it to the next phase together, and I’d love to hear from you — comment below and let me know where you’re supporting from. And if my work resonates with you, I’d be so grateful for your continued support in this next round. Let’s keep going together. ✨ Who’s in?

Can we bring this home 🏆?

I’ll be honest—this process is very different from what I’m used to.

Coming from the fine arts and juried exhibitions,
I’ve never had to rely on public voting
or expect my community to pay for support.

I come from a space where you earn your place.

That said…

The way you’ve all been showing up for me—daily—
has kept me at the top of my group.

And that tells me something important:
we actually have a real shot at this.

If we stay consistent
and make use of the free daily votes,
we can take this all the way.

I’ve been selected as a finalist for The People’s Artist,
presented by Johnny Depp—
and this round is decided by public vote.

TIN HAUS started from nothing.
No shortcuts. No backing.
Just years of building, creating, and trusting the work.

Now it comes down to this.

Voting resets every day—
so your daily vote truly makes a difference.

If my work has ever resonated with you,
I’d genuinely appreciate you showing up for me here.

I appreciate the support Ranella Ferrer Di Salvo 🙏🏼 and only hope to make everyone proud through my work. ❤️

I’ve entered art exhibitions, but this competition is different. I was recently picked as a finalist for The People’s Artist, presented by Johnny Depp.

In the next phase of the competition, winners are determined by the public. Not by appointed judges. Therefore, I remain faithful that my community will show up for me in this competition. Voting resets every day, so please vote daily. Please share far and wide.

Voting resets every day—so if you choose to support, your vote can make an impact daily. If this work resonates with you, sharing it with someone who might feel the same truly helps.

I don’t usually do this publicly—but this time is different.

I’ve been selected as a finalist for The People’s Artist, presented by Johnny Depp—and for the first time, the next phase isn’t decided behind closed doors. It’s decided by people.

This is outside of my comfort zone—but I’m stepping into it with intention. I trust that those who connect with my work will show up.

What you’re seeing here is one of the pieces that led to my selection. The Origins Collar Necklace on the cover is especially meaningful—hand-forged from a single sheet of metal into its final form.

I’ll be sharing the full process behind this one-of-a-kind piece soon—now in the hands of a renowned Hollywood director.

As a multidisciplinary artist rooted in contemporary sculptural jewelry, my work explores abstraction, ancient symbolism, and the unseen.

“Steal Like An Artist” - do you know the true meaning?

I used to think studying other artists meant losing my originality. Now I see it differently—your voice is shaped through what you absorb, transform, and make your own.

So where do you draw the line between inspiration and imitation?
