HOT ! Mykonos Bangle by Angela Bolaños

Each piece is crafted from lightweight wood, often carved or cut into various shapes such as pendants, earrings, or bracelets. The natural texture of the wood serves as a warm, organic canvas for the painted designs. 

The artist uses gouache paint, known for its vibrant and opaque qualities, to create intricate designs. These may include floral patterns, abstract motifs, whimsical illustrations, or cultural symbols. The brushstrokes are often meticulous, resulting in detailed and striking compositions that showcase the artist\'s creativity and precision. 

Once the painting is complete, the piece is coated with a layer of clear UV resin. This finish not only protects the delicate artwork from wear and tear but also enhances the colors, giving the jewelry a glossy, glass-like appearance. The resin adds durability and ensures the paint remains intact over time. 

Each piece is handmade,adding a personalized touch to each piece. Despite its striking appearance, the jewelry remains comfortable to wear due to the lightweight nature of wood. The use of natural wood makes it an environmentally friendly accessory option.
