Stevie Pniewski’s work is fueled by obsession. The obsession to polish to a perfect mirror finish. The obsession to create 100s and 100s of jump rings. The obsession to pierce tons of tiny stars. And an obsession with vintage clowns? Yes that's right, clowns. Shiny clowns, and shiny chains.
Stevie explores both loop and loop chains and chainmaille in their work, learning various weaves and patterns to create bracelets, chains and more. These are sometimes adorned with clowns, because who doesn’t like a funny little guy to hang out with. Except when the funny little guy isn’t right for the piece, Stevie turns to stone setting, constantly trying new techniques like basket and bead setting.
