The Avenue Gallery – Feature Artist – Darlene Letendre

Inspired by nature, Darlene Letendre works with semi-precious metals transforming them into one-of-a-kind sculptural necklaces, earrings and rings. Each creation uses hand forged, fused, cast or reticulated elements. Each composition becomes a unique handmade piece of wearable art. For Darlene, each step of the process from design, through formation, to finishing is an exciting creative journey filled with opportunities to continually explore new designs, refine techniques and learn new ones.
