About
Hello! I'm Pauline and I am a visual artist working out of my studio in Ontario, Canada.
I have been creating for years, ever since I was first enrolled into an after-school visual arts program at the age of 7.
My artistic aesthetic is expressed via beadwork and embroidery and over the years I have created and sold jewelry, pins and art in this medium.
I am currently best known for magnetic pins under PinLynx brand. They are unique in their design and wearability and range from minimalistic enamel pins to elaborate embroidered pins that take hours to make.
All pins are magnetic. There's no pin on the back and therefore no risk of damaging your favourite top or jacket!
All pins also come in a frame where they can be displayed between wears.
While I enjoy creating beautiful wearable art in the form of my PinLynx brooch pins, I also love creating jewelry and decorative art which I am planning to add to my online store in the coming few months.
I love what I do and am ever excited for the new projects that lie ahead of me!
