Born into a family of artists, Hattie was ingrained in creativity from a very young age as she explored her creativity through various artistic disciplines. As a young child, Hattie began her intensive ballet training. At 14, she was accepted into the prestigious School of American Ballet, Juilliard School, NYC. Drawing from her experiences in the artistry of dance, Hattie evolved into a recognized sculptor with her work exhibited in galleries and shows. "I loved sculpture, but something was missing. I needed something more."
Hattie's eagerness to grow and expand as an artist blossomed into her crafting jewelry. "Being self-taught in jewelry has allowed me to cultivate my unique style without outside influence. I don't plan any of my pieces. I start. My designs are constantly changing as I mature through life. My work is an extension of me."
Hattie works and resides in her 18th-century farmhouse studio in the quaint historic town of Unionville, Pennsylvania, with her wonderfully supportive husband and three beautiful children.
Hattie has been making jewelry since 2007 and opened Hattie Weselyk Studio in September, 2014.
In addition to teaching classes at her studio, Hattie teaches classes at Longwood Gardens, Winterthur, Delaware Art Museum, The Pennsylvania Guild of Craftsman, Chester County Art Association, and Main Line Art Center.
