And I Quote. . .
"Ask most people what they want
out of life and the answer is simple - to be happy. Maybe it's this
expectation though of wanting to be happy that just keeps us from ever
getting there. Maybe the more we try to will ourselves to state's of
bliss, the more confused we get - to the point where we don't recognize
ourselves. Instead we just keep smiling - trying to be the happy
people we wish we were. Until it eventually hits us, it's been there
all along. Not in our dreams or our hopes but in the known, the
comfortable, the familiar."

Fancy // Mineralogy
Mineralogy jewelry is a collection of limited edition and one-of-a-kind
jewelry designed and handcrafted by Chicago local and School of the Art
Institute of Chicago graduate, Theresa Cowan. Inspired by an earth
science class lecture of minerals, Cowan began her creations. Mineral
specimens are the focal point of the intricate collection. Each piece
is made impressionistically with the experimentation with the materials
of the basis of the design process. Cowan looks to enhance what nature
has left and other times, chooses to let the object stand alone as a
fortification of its natural state. The majority of the minerals used
are uncut and unpolished to display their unique characteristics. Cowan
also assimilates the use of obscure elements in her jewelry, such as
animal bones and prehistorical animal teeth, some dating back to 2
million years ago. These styles are produced in limited quantities,
with each individual piece unique in its own aspects due to nature's
wonderful aberrations. Shop Mineralogy at The Fancy Affair.

Art and Flea // Honolulu
I was really happy to be in Hawaii for this event. June's event was held in Chinatown in Smith Street park but it's usually held at Fresh Cafe. I hope that the event grows bigger as time goes on because it's so nice to see Hawaii have something like this for local artists and for shoppers!
