by  Sraddha Ishaya

Sraddha Ishaya is a native New Yorker currently living in Boulder, Colorado.  She left a career in the fashion industry in 1998 to become a monk of the Ishaya Order and teach spiritual development.  One result of her spiritual practice has been a hugely enhanced creative flow.  Sraddha experiences creating jewelry as meditative and enlivening.  She uses the Ishayas’ open-eyed meditation techniques as she works, infusing each piece with healing and upwardly spiraling energy.  Because of this, people are naturally attracted to her work, which features unique combinations of semi precious stones, crystal, and other materials including silk, horn, shell and resin.  Each of her pieces is one of a kind.

Sraddha describes her style as “funky yet sophisticated”.  She is also an accomplished pastel artist, does “felt-art” mandalas, and is available for commissions on both jewelry and artwork.
