It has been a long time coming and I do apologise: Tote bags are now available to purchase from my website.

Variations on a favourite design: two-tone friendship bracelets, made from tiny gemstone beads sourced from India, Thailand and China, with tiny silver Thai Hill Tribe charms.
Have a lovely week all.

Large format images
Since January, I have been working on two very large images (amongst other things).
These are both 115cm x 115cm and are watercolour, pencil and collage on sewn Arches paper, 300 gsm.
The top one, was entered into the Sulman Prize but sadly was not selected as a finalist. The second one is a private commission which was approved on Sunday and is now getting framed.
I must admit it was extremely scary to work on these and at this size but I am very pleased with the results.

New jewellery - pendants
I have been working on more jewellery designs. There was a call for more pendants from a friend so here is a selection from the latest crop.
These are pendants on necklaces made from tiny gemstone beads: coral (deep red), turquoise (greeny-blue), agate (brown, fluoro green), serpentine (dark green), and onyx (black).
The focal beads are Indian cut stones mostly bought in Bangkok, Kathmandu and some odd flea market finds: turquoise nuggets, carnelian (orange), coral, vintage cilver filigree, rose quartz, ancient Syrian glass, pearls and agate.
These are made with the autumn season in mind - they are to wear over a shirt or polo/turtle neck.
Although the colours and design make them very unique and eye catching, I have made a stand against those big, bulky resin pendants you now see everywhere.
These are one offs and made from sterling silver and gemstones.
Prices around $70. They aren't on a website yet.
