by Yvette
was started after receiving great encouragement and gratification from numerous people who had already fallen in love with her jewelry. Her jewelry and their vibrant stones reflect her belief that stones link people spiritually across cultures. Sparkling swarovski crystals, rhinestones, and colored gemstones shape patterns and designs. Drawing from
her paintings, sculptures and ceramics, Yvette’s jewelry is fresh and original. Yvette has always had an interest in art. When she first put her

hands into paint—the youngest member of her mother's art class—her creativity blossomed.
Her inspiration first began at home where she would observe her mother sketch, paint,and draw. Painting and drawing throughout her school days, Yvette's teachers encouraged her to develop her own skills as well as to teach others. Overseeing innovative programs for a wide range of audiences, Yvette enjoys encouraging youth and adults to meet their full potential whether it is creating or simply learning more about the visual arts. She has taught and created art for over fifteen years.
Yvette’ s works have been shown at the Mamaroneck Artist’s Guild and Westchester County’s Greenburgh and White Plains public libraries.
Most recently published in UpScale Magazine and Urban Latino Magazine; her designs have appeared in Audrey, Accessories, LaunchPad and The Crafts Report Magazines as well as in local newspapers such as The Journal News and on-line reviews.
