Donna Veverka has a monumental task at hand. Literally. She distills magnificent structures and transforms them into sleek, powerful forms to be worn. The former sculptor began her Architectural Ring series as she transitioned back to making jewelry in 2005, and all of her pieces exude her sense of architectural flair. So where does she get her inspiration?

"I have always been interested in history and archeology," Veverka says. "When I travel, buildings and archeological sites are on top of my list. For me, it is one place that we can directly interact with the past. Architecture surrounds the human form. Jewelry is worn around our bodies. The scale is so different, but we inhabit both. It is pretty powerful to be able to wear an entire amphitheater on your body!"

Can't get enough craft? Neither can we. Heck Yes Craft is a series of visual blog posts with a simple mission: to show off amazing work. Come back every Friday for more.
