Jeanique is designed and created by South African artist Jean Houndsome. Her unique designs are inspired by her love for decorative painting and unusual artistic pieces. Jeanique is a line of acrylic jewelry which consist of bracelets and necklaces. These pieces are all hand molded from a form of acrylic. There is a heating and hand sculpting process involved.
Pieces are cut, layered, heated, textured and sculpted by hand. All bracelets are molded directly around her wrist, one by one, which cause them to fit extremely comfortable. From there they go into a "magic" machine where the pieces come to a set, but remain flexible. Once set, all pieces are hand painted with a paint brush. It has NO prior color.
First, a black base coat is applied. There after, all pieces are delicately hand painted in layers and layers of rich beautiful colors, which are sure to be a treat to your eyes. Be sure to read the News Page. IT has the Artist Festival show schedule and where you can experience these beautiful one of a kind pieces first hand!

I shape every piece around my own wrist, one by one, causing them to fit extremely comfortable.
Then i use different size paint brushes to create different textures and shadows.
Every color is at least 2-3 coats of paint, to get the colors to really "pop" and dance with vibrance.
I end with a teeny tiny paint brush that I painstakingly use to paint the mesh or animal texture, as well as the edges.
If you look closely you will notice on some pieces fine lines around the edges.
Yeah all done by hand baby!

I first saw Jean's bracelets at the art festival in Viera Fl.
I had to buy 6 pieces for myself and for gifts for friends and family.
I keep thinking of others that would love to own this jewelry that are also beautiful pieces of art! Jean is a beautiful and talented woman that is also very patient and kind.
Thank you Jean for sharing your talent with me and so many others!
I look forward to many more purchases!
