Les Bijoux UNIK Jewels

There is no limit to the imagination of a true artist and Donald Long exactly personifies all the qualities of an artist. Unique, beautiful and dramatic – those are only a few of the words which describe the work of Donald Long in a series of pendants, neck pieces, earrings, charms, and key chains made from everyday items and pedestrian mediums transferred by Donald to become jewels that are one-of-a-kind treasures. Using only is imagination as a guide, Donald has produced tantalizing effects in aluminum, resin, exotic wood and various other metals such as copper and brass to produce jewellery accented by lovely bead work, cut-outs in metal, clear and coloured resin, glitter, and other found objects with the result that his pieces not only serve as wearable accessories but also works of art.

Donald Long is an interesting man. Multi-faceted, talented and personable, he has had a varied background, and career. A former psychologist in the District 1 NB school system, he is presently employed as a statistician at Université de Moncton. Donald’s craft is a great stress releaser as well as a vehicle for his own creativity, and is a hobby that has become a lucrative business as well. Donald has surprised both himself and his customer with the depth of beauty and appeal his pieces have engendered at the Marché Moncton Market.
