From an early age, I focused on painting and drawing, with my work composed mainly of still lives and portraits. The components of creating a composition were drilled into my head during my adolescent, enabling me to breakdown the natural and manmade landscapes in front of me.  I don’t see buildings or cars, and instead I see lines, values, shapes, textures, foregrounds and backgrounds.  In my jewelry, I replicate this simplified idea of what fills our space into pieces of jewelry. I aim to make pieces that appear different from every angle, creating illusions to question what is really in front of us.

I graduated with a BFA from the University of Michigan in 2012 and moved to Miami that following October. Since then I have found my passion in teaching as well as participated the Coconut Grove Arts Festival in 2020 and the American Craft Made 2022 in St. Paul. My work has been seen in publications such as British Vogue, Vanity Fair and Tatler.

I currently teach at Miami Jewelry Institute so send me a message if you would like to learn!

When I am not teaching or working on TashaFelice, I am hanging out with my dogs and watching sitcoms.
