Lorraine Yapps-Cohen - Artist Biography
Lorraine comes to the art world following a 30-year business career in R&D and an academic professorship in creativity and innovation. She has two Master's degrees--MS in chemistry and MBA in marketing. Lorraine's real love is in jewelry design. Combining her technical background, work in metallurgy research, innovation skills, and internships with nationally known goldsmiths, silversmiths, and wrap designers, Lorraine has developed jewelry fabrication techniques that complement her own experimentation with metals, stones, and pearls to yield truly unique jewelry creations.
"Colorado has brought new visions to my designs because here we experience so much more of earth's geological splendors. New ideas are expressed freely. Academic design constraints are removed. Indigenous materials become wearable art."
"I need to be excited by the finished piece. I need to experience the WOW, the thumping heart, the jolt of excitement at the emergence of a stunning new design. You know it's good by looking. Only pieces with WOW factor leave the bench."
Lorraine lives and designs in her studio in Durango, CO. |
