A bit about Rhonda Chase Design
I started Rhonda Chase Design as Rhonda Chase Design and Illustration in the late 1980’s. Over time, it evolved from a freelance business to a small graphic design and marketing firm, serving well-known companies like Wells Fargo and Home Depot. Most of my work was created on a computer and included lots of corporate collateral, web design, etc.
Then, in 2009 I decided to renew my fine art roots by getting my hands back into the art I love. I focused on jewelry design and ceramics and quickly gained recognition in the respective fields: winning awards and showing work in galleries. Currently, I also do guest blogging, give classes and write online tutorials on jewelry making.
I live and work in beautiful Pleasanton, California.
