Much of her work is eclectic ( composed of elements drawn from various sources) She has a talent to blend these different elements to create beautiful pieces of body art. Many of her works have an antique or Art Nouveau look as well.
I absolutely love this pendant below. The stone in the center of the design reminds me of an october evening sky, or the Harvest moon as we look through the trees. The embellishments of the dragon fly and butterfly make it whimsical. It is just stunning.
Irina often works from preliminary sketches to determine the best choice of design. She invents unique wire wrapping techniques for most of her pieces. This creates beautiful and wholly original works of art.
She is inspired by the beauty in nature. I can understand why. Nature has so much to offer. Look at the stones in this bracelet. I copied a close up for you to see the details. Isn't it gorgeous? all the cracks in the stones make them so full of personality. I would love to wear something special like this on my wrist!
Irina loves to work with stones to enhance their natural beauty using wire, charms and beads. The stone below has golden wires which is real nice. She loves creating unique designs to match each stones "one of a kind" appearance.
Her works have caught the attention of many and Irina even won first place in the "Fancy beads and Accessories" competition at her local bead store. She lives in Toronto, Canada and her works can be found in local shops like "Made You Look" You should check out her website. She has so many nice pieces. Available are necklaces, pendants, bracelets, earrings & rings.
