ART + DESIGN
Creation Process Emily Kiel’s
GATHERING & ENVISIONING The first part of her process starts with collecting and researching materials, catering to current and future clients. REFINEMENT Shaping, polishing, and adjusting begins until it feels balanced and true to the Okobojo Creek Design’s brand. Recreation, readjusting, and refinement often take place during this part of the process. HANDS-ON MAKING She moves on to experimenting with texture, forms, and testing combinations of beads, stones, and colors. FINISHING TOUCHES Kiel says this is where the character of the piece comes alive and the beauty of the time spent on handmade work shows. A transformation that never existed before will now become someone else’s statement piece and “a piece of Kiel’s heart.”
