About me
Living in Cornwall is a great privilege and one which I try and make the most of everyday. I currently live in the heart of Penzance and my workshop is situated in a small summer house at the end of my garden overlooking Penzance Harbour, with beautiful views of Mounts Bay. The view and continuous energy of the sea changes every day and this gives me great inspiration for my jewellery.
Originally from Liverpool I moved to the Cornwall with my family at the age of 14 and have absolutely loved living here ever since. I have always been captivated by the beauty of the Cornish landscape and in particular the Penwith peninsular. I have a love of nature and all the wonderful flora and fauna along the Cornish coastline. Creativity has always been an essential part of my life and I have always enjoyed and appreciated the artistic energy that Cornwall boasts.
In 2010 I enrolled on a short course at Morrab Art School to learn the basic skills of working with silver and copper. Completing this course at Morrab Art School taught me a range of simple silver Jewellery techniques and the art of handmade silver jewellery. Whilst following this course I began to develop ideas for designs and continued making jewellery as a hobby. I begun to develop my hobby into more than just this and started to sell my jewellery in several galleries and became part of the Cornwall Craft Association (CCA).
In 2020 I took part in the 125 exhibition by Cornwall Crafts, held at Trelissick House, celebrating 125 years of the National Trust. In total, forty CCA Members produced some beautiful and unique pieces, covering all disciplines, from stunning lighting, quirky automata, shimmering glass to exquisite silver, textiles and ceramics.
I am always open to commissions and would love to hear your ideas so please do get in touch. You can also purchase my jewellery directly via my contact page.
