The Brazilian Cerrado's Art

The main goal of "The Brazilian Cerrado's Art" is to share with artists and people around the world the work done by artisans who living in this biome.

In general, they are simple people but with an enormous power of creation. Various educational projects teach these artists to explore the Cerrado in a sustainable way.

As we invite everyone to see the artistic production of the region, I also want to receive and link to blogs of artists from other countries.

Every month we will do a tribute in the banner to an international artist that show interest by our blog.

Kavanah Healing Jewelry

The first tribute is for Andrea Rosenfeld. The letter "K" in the banner is of @Kavanah, her nickname on Twitter.
The Kavanah Healing Line represents artist Andrea Rosenfeld’s “urgent desire for the wearer to experience a quick recovery and return to optimum health.
Each piece is like a wonderful prayer meant to lift one's spirits and speed along the healing process."
Explore the Kavanah line and fall in love with this thoughtful, wearable art.
