WHO I AM

I am Milissa - a creative soul who practically breathes creating art. My jewelry journey began in 2008 during an ordinary hardware store run with my husband. Among screws and paint swatches, I spotted a set of beautiful hinges and new in a flash of ridiculous delight, that something incredible could be born of them. That was the day ARTISTRY UNHINGED was born.

What started as hinge art unfurled into a wider obsession with materials and metals. I have collected bits and pieces over the years – found objects, rescued metals unexpected treasures – and let them tell me what they want to become. Most pieces are one-of-a- kind each has its own personality; its own tiny history embedded in the creation. If a piece can be reproduced or customize. I’ll say so in the description

Creating is not just what I do, it’s who I am. I love the wild play of combining textures, the little sparks, (literal and metaphorical) and surprise when something ordinary is transformed into wearable art. hope you have as much fun discovering your next favorite piece as I have creating it. Welcome to ARTISTRY UNHINGED where hinges metals and imagination collide
