"Allow Me To Design Your Space, Adorn You With Taste & Feed Your Face." O.Q. 2016 _Daria

Individual adornment and one’s environment speak volumes about a human being. My passion for almost thirty years has been to assist others on their journey to personal expression. When I am not designing someone’s personal, commercial space, or plate I enjoy creating unique one of kind or limited edition jewelry. The creations on this site will vary in theme from “primitive to minimalist modern”, and oftentimes these dichotomies of the two extremes are merged to form my take on “nouveau wearable ornamentation.” In addition, I am a published Pastel Artist, who also runs the gamut in charcoal, colored & black & white pencil, acrylics sculpture. I also write in various genres. On thing for sure I am never bored, (Laughing) ! Bon Appetit! ... on what "ECVADesign" has to offer. The jeweler allows me to wear the sapphire blue lake on my finger, the emerald green leaves around my neck, and take the citrine sunset with me wherever I go. Jewelry has become my daytime link to nature in an office with no windows. And if I have to work late, there's nothing like diamond stars and a pearl full moon against an onyx night sky.
