Studio Polka Dot

Emily, of Snowflakes Designs Jewelry, has been creating jewelry for over ten years, selling mainly at festivals and art shows in and around Rochester, NY. In 2008, she started selling online in order to make her work available to a larger audience. "My goal is to create colorful and distinctive artisan jewelry that can be enjoyed every day," says Emily. "I use gemstones, beads and wire wrapping in my designs."

Here are some highlights from snowflake designs:

Grape Charm Bracelet is an eye-catching design with multi-colored green textured patina leaves, lampworked glass beads and grape clusters handmade from glass beads. It's a great choice for wine or grape lovers and a unique natural Fall look.

Sun and Sky Necklace is made of apatite and citrine gemstone chip clusters along with amazonite. It's a really beautiful color combination and I also offer matching earrings.

Storm Clouds Necklace is made of clusters of smoky quartz and iolite gems along with freshwater pearls. The center piece is a faceted labradorite briolette. The subtle blue and gray color combination makes this necklace very wearable- whether with jeans or a favorite dress.

I am Tracey Rediker, artist and shop owner of Red Linc Art. I have been an artist for as long as I can remember, and have studied seriously since I was 8 years old. I love to create art in all sorts of media. Generally, my paintings, drawings and photography are realistic and figurative with a pop art quality. I like to take the everyday and put a new spin on it. Inspiration, for me, can be found everywhere. My children’s faces, a conversation with a friend, or a view I have seen a thousand times before but only appreciated that day.

In my shop you will find original works in Oil, Acrylic, Pencil and Photography. I offer framing, at an additional cost, and prints of most of the pieces available on the site.
