For as long as I can remember, I have dreamed of painting what I see when my eyes are closed. As a vivid dreamer, these visions have always been a beacon, inspiring hope during the darkest of times. I dream of what the world ought to be—a place where true love reigns, adventure awaits, and wonder hides around every corner. Now, I have set out to capture these dreams on canvas and share that inner hope with the world.

CaOs Adornments

CaOs Adornments is a celebration of color, creativity, and individuality—where jewelry becomes a playful exploration of art, form, and self-expression.

At the heart of our work is Love = Love = Geometry, a collection inspired by the beauty of geometric shapes and the belief that love, like geometry, exists in countless forms. Circles, squares, hexagons, lines, and cubes become wearable expressions of balance, connection, and possibility.

Created in the six colors of the rainbow, the collection transforms rainbow art into something chic, elevated, and distinctly contemporary. Each piece makes a bold statement of support for love in all its beautiful forms—celebrating inclusivity, individuality, and the freedom to love openly and authentically.

With sculptural shapes, vibrant color, and an artistic sensibility, CaOs Adornments turns a powerful message into wearable art.

CaOs Adornments — where love takes shape.

There exists a relationship between art and nature. I find them both good for the soul. Nature is the primary influence for my art, whether developing new design work based on elements found in nature or painting those elements in a representational way. Living with nature inspired art reminds us daily of our connection to the natural world.

Taking their cue from the elements of nature, my acrylic gouache and polymer clay pieces are bold and vibrant. This collaboration of color and design makes a unique statement. I hope my art brings joy and wonder to those who choose to make it a part of their life.

Michael W. Quataert

My name is Michael Quataert, I have always been interested in woodworking, and increasingly I’ve been even more drawn to woodturning. I suppose it’s a reaction to the uniformity and stylistic sterility of modern goods and homes where everything is machine-made, artificial and standardized. Wood, like many crafts such as pottery, allows us to work with our hands and fashion something unique with the raw materials that nature has given us.

For example, when I find a piece of timber that has a crack or void, I don’t discard it, nor do I attempt to disguise it. Instead, I use the opportunity to celebrate its uniqueness and to highlight the character of the timber itself.  Also, I try not to hide the timber under a plastic film but prefer an oil finish that allows the fingers to sense the warmth, the weight and the texture of the wood underneath. It’s a way of connecting with nature and part of the total experience of owning something artisan-made.
