“I make jewelry for the body and soul. Jewelry is a celebration of the self! I love creating it, I love seeing the way it adorns the body, and I love the feeling you get from wearing it! I want to share this love with you!” –Lesley Vollmer
About my Jewelry:
I create artisan jewelry that has significance and beauty. Each of my pieces is a composition of beads and findings from all over the world. I have created over a thousand unique pieces. The artistry in my designs comes from the use of the elements and principles of art. I am inspired by the interplay between color and texture, shape and space, pattern and unity, emphasis and balance. Every piece of jewelry I make is crafted by my hands with quality workmanship and love.

About my Art:
The inspiration for my art-making process comes from the love in my life, my thirst for knowledge, the power of nature and the vastness of our universe. Making jewelry is one of my favorite forms of artistic expression, others include painting, collage, and sculpting. My Art Gallery site LesleyVollmer.com is currently under construction. I accept commissions. If you are interested in having your very own Lesley Designs work of art, contact me.
