Dandelion
I use a variety of natural materials like bone, teeth, antlers, sea life, wood, leather and stone to create one of a kind jewelry pieces that inspire a connection with mother nature. As the ultimate upcycler, I aim to bring creepy and classy together where they belong. I strive to challenge our notions on death and decay and to see the absolute beauty in all the facets of nature and life.

Melange "Seriously Fun Art"
Melange "Seriously Fun Art" drawings incorporate patterns that are not normally found on the surface of an object and use them to decorate and describe the form of the object. This unusual art form creates depth, interest and whimsy in the work. The artist, Kristin Moger, finds inspiration from nature as well as cultures from around the world. After sketching her composition in pencil, she painstakingly draws freehand with an ink pen on acid free paper to create her final patterns.
