Shawn Martin
?I am Shawn Martin from the capital city of India, Delhi. I am a simple, honest and fun-loving person. I did my post-graduation work in fine arts. After completing my studies, I was keen to do something creative and of my own. But the path was unknown to me. One fine day, I visited one of my dad's friends, who is in the jewelry business. I was awestruck by the beauty of the designs of the jewelry that I beheld. I was so inspired that I decided to start designing jewelry. I was very inquisitive to know how this beautiful jewelry was made and I also wanted to learn the techniques of jewelry making. I used to make frequent visits to my uncle's workshop and spend hours there to see and learn the techniques of making jewelry by his artisans.<br><br>
?With my father's financial support and help, I have now set up my own workplace where I work with three other skilled artisans. Since I am new in this field, I mainly do the designing while they do the crafting, but at times I assist them in the crafting process. I am still trying to learn the intricacies of the crafting techniques. My father helps me by taking care of the finances and logistics. <br><br>
?During my post graduation, I visited many antique jewelry museums which remain my inspiration. I have also attended numerous workshops and exhibitions, which help me a lot in my field of jewelry design. I feel that the arts and crafts of my country are dying. I wish to revive the dying art of my country through my designs. <br><br>
?I started mostly with natural rocks and wood. Gradually I moved up to semi-precious gemstones. My dream is to design quality jewelry, both traditional and modern. I try to keep abreast of the requirements of my customers, providing them quality products along with unique designs. The happiness and satisfaction of my customers is my ultimate achievement. <br><br>
?I feel so elated to be able to provide work and financial stability to the three artisans who work with me. I encourage them to provide education to their children. Though perhaps at a small scale, I feel that if I am able to bring smile to their faces, it is my contribution to society. <br><br>
?I hope to launch an art gallery for various skills, especially jewelry making techniques, in the future. I am truly grateful to you for providing a platform for me to show my designs to the whole world. I hope you appreciate my designs and work.?
