Hi everyone! My name is Lena and I live in New Hampshire, but orginally I am from Ukraine. I have been making jewellery and beaded flowers for 8 years.

It is difficult to say why I create art. Sometimes it is a need to see something in a new way, or a need to put down in tangible form a real beauty that I see in flowers.

I use all richness of colors. Monotone signifies pure image and focuses on precision of the pattern, black and white emphasize the femininity, light and dark create mood.

Inspiration comes from lace, ribbon or haute couture dresses. I like to explore combination of beads and glass with gems and pearls. I try to combine intricate design with different forms and shapes to add to the originality to each piece.

All of pieces are one-of-a-kind and very rare. Each product has a story and becomes a conversation piece when adorns a home or adds finishing touches to a wedding dress.

Craft making is a constant learning process, and sometimes I cannot tell if it is the technical work that I am learning or my inner self.
