Hello, my name is Joanne Forman. I make and design jewelry, in particular for those who are like me, young at heart. I’m born and raised on Long Island and currently live in Sound Beach, New York.  My family and I are minutes from the Long Island Sound. This big body of salt water is my muse. It is a constant source of inspiration, and influence.

My blog is an opportunity to share with you a glimpse into behind the scenes images in my studio making jewelry, things I love, inspirational things such as art and landscape, how to wear jewelry pieces, aging gracefully, seasonal tips and special occasions. I’ll be sharing some of my drawings and paintings too.

You’ll get to know Nadine, our family cat. She is my muse, studio assistant and constant companion.

The many hats I wear as owner of SoundBeachStudio. These hats include fabricating all my jewelry by hand, being both photographer and model for the images I use, photo image processing, marketing and the list goes on.

I hope my blog will inspire you and keep you refreshed with lots of ideas and beautiful visuals. Click here to sign up to see my newest blog posts and join my mailing list. Thanks for stopping by.
