Custom Creations
The design was created in CAD (computer aided design) using Matrix Gold. Matrix is a parametric based program specifically used for jewelry. A 3D resin model was printed, and from that a mold was created for casting using a "lost wax process", named for the fact that the resin model in burned away to create the mold. This is a one-off piece that will never be recreated except by client request.

This verse encourages me to approach my work with enthusiasm and dedication, as if I am serving not just people, but God of the universe Himself. The verse emphasizes putting my whole heart into my work, reflecting a spirit of reverence and commitment to God.
