Artist information
I have been designing and making for over over 40 years. I have exhibited in this country and abroad and have pieces in the Dallas Museum of Modern Art.
I trained in Sheffield and ran my business in London before moving to Berkshire.
I enjoy adding to my skills and have co-written a book called 'Silver Jewellery Making' with Machi who I shall be exhibiting with on this trail.
Last year I carved some cows horn and made a necklace which won a double gold in the GC&DC Awards competition.
I teach and was resident jeweller at South Hill Park Art Centre. It's great to pass on the joy of making and some of my students have gone on to run businesses of their own; but at whatever level, it is super to talk all things jewellery.
Exhibition information
I work mainly in silver with accents of gemstones and texture.
I love carving nature which can be seen in my work and I do like flowing lines and find this aesthetic comes through in my designs.
