Visual artist and jewelry maker Janine Jacques led a bracelet-making workshop Saturday, July 19, in the courtyard of BAAP Boutique in South Los Angeles. Participants created a stretch bracelet and a spiral memory wire bracelet.
Jacques, owner of Jewels by Janine, has shown her work in juried art venues, boutiques, and museum gift shops nationwide. A former organic body care entrepreneur, she became a self-taught jewelry artist whose designs drew on her art background and techniques such as wire wrapping, ceramics, enameling, and copper metalwork.
