Artsy Fodder:  Art Gets Bejewelled

Artists and designers have been inspiring each other for centuries. Whether we realize it or not, much of the clothes we wear, jewelry we sport and objects we use are a result of the symbiosis between art and design.  And I for one, love to celebrate such connections!  For this first feature in the new Artsy Fodder series, let’s have some fun with artfully inspired jewelry designs.  These pieces may not have directly influenced each other, but there is an unmistakable resemblance.

    Great connections between art and jewelry! I definitely have some pieces in my jewelry box that bear a resemblance to the art on my walls.
