I am a well known jewelry designer and a columnist ("Jean in the City") for Digital Beading Magazine. Check out my jewelry book, Links. You may buy it simply by going directly to Amazon, or any top bookstore.
I never stop thinking about what I am going to create next. TRUE truth.
I keep my family life pretty much out of this arena, but I have a lot of children and two are autistic. Therefore, I occasionally write about autism, because it is a part of our lives, always. I am proud of my family. My husband Jim is extremely funny and incredible with the kids and I adore him.
But back to the jewelry: I like color, and I like fine materials. I consider myself an investigator, as far as design, ideas, and materials. What do I mean by that? I mean that I like to study jewelry design, as if I were taking a course in school. That is my idea of FUN! Jean Yates, PJI. Private Jewelry Investigator.
Back to life in general: I think a lot, about many things, and I love good movies and good books. I am willing to review on Amazon if something is particularly fine, in my opinion, and I will give good reasons why.
Always, I go my own way. And I like it that way!
