Mandy Deskur is a new artist on the
Elora - Fergus Studio Tour this year. The new store front, studio space called Macadi Jewellery was opened on September 1st 2007. Having the workshop on site gives the customers an opportunity to see the design process from start to the finished piece. Mandy says that she is "inspired by nature's impressions. ...I study very closely the unique lines in a leaf, the elaborate patterns in a butterfly wing, or the silhouette of an orchid...and then takes these characteristics and abstract them, zoom in on interesting features and add my own vision. Simplifying a very intricate pattern often makes a design more appealing. I often incorporate semi-precious and precious stones into my pieces. Completing my studies in Gemology has helped me to understand the properties of each unique gem." Add Macadi Jewellery Studio onto your route during the studio tour weekends, and meet Mandy in person.
