About Paula

Paula James Nailor is an artist with an eye for bold, elegant statement design, based in Harlem, NY. Ms. Nailor has been a visual artist for most of her life. Her artwork includes mixed media abstract collage and assemblage, oils, acrylics, sculpture and, most recently, jewelry design, which is an extension of her mixed media and collage art.

Paula’s creative process is driven by her desire to take beautiful gemstones and precious metals and create a unique piece of wearable art that promotes self-expression, self-beauty, and individuality for her clients. “It’s amazing how a cleverly crafted piece of metal and unblemished rock can make a statement about one’s personality and outfit.” Each piece is very personal and hard to part with, says Paula, but “I’ve finally gotten to a place where I’m able to enjoy sharing my creations by bringing happiness to others.” “Like my collage artwork, each piece is one-of-a-kind and special.”

Ms. Nailor sources unusual materials and high-quality gemstones from all over the world to create one-of-a-kind pieces of “wearable art” to be enjoyed for years to come.
