Artist Profile

Quincie Hamby

Quincie has been a jewelry artist for the past 17 years. Her vision for jewelry design was created by way of her upbringing and education in Anthropology and Archeology. She grew up in Hawaii and was immersed in cultural diversity at a very young age. She has always been fascinated with these cultural traditions, as well as all the colors seen in the exotic fruits and flowers. She has always had a quick eye for many details and remembers tremendous amounts of tidbits (much of which her husband hates) and so her jewelry is a combination of her life, love and desires. You can visit Quincie's website at www.quinciehamby.com or more of her work at Quincie's Art Jewelry at 1325 Thomasville Road.
