New work
Neckpiece Detail (In progress)
This is a sneak peak of a neckpiece I am currently making. At the moment it has about 600 wires on it and resembles a creepy-crawley of some sort. Plan to develop this into other designs but this one will stay simple.
A blast from the past
Bangle (2008) White precious metal wire, oxidised copper.
I'm working late in college justnow and was looking through my old photos on the computer and found these! This was a bangle I made in my first year for the 'Repetition' project. I loved this piece.

Slate!
A recent development in my work is the incorporation of slate. Lovely colour, lovely flat surface, lovely lovely lovely. I'm excited to see where I can take this.
10 weeks to go...
The pressure is beginning to get to us all! The deadline is 10 weeks on Friday.
I am currently trying to work on a million different things at once. Hoping to have my first brooch finished tomorrow (I have sent away two which unfortunately wont be back in time for degree show) and by Friday I should be well on my way to having another two pieces! While my working method may be somewhat erratic and all over the place, it's really exciting when everything starts to come together at once.
My bench has been a constant state of chaos since this semester started. I love it.

The final semester!
My final semester at ECA begins on Monday which is terrifying! I don't want to leave!
Last week I found out that I had been selected to go through to the next stage of the Spirit of Stones competition in Finland which I am so excited about. I've been making two brooches for my entry and I've been told to think about making another accompanying piece, perhaps a ring. However, I need to think about my degree show as well!
I'm carrying on my research work from last semester so I will continue looking at drawing and painting, and enamelled and textured surfaces on metal.
This was a happy accident from last semester which I am developing:
The solder is disgustingly messy! I'm trying to make this so that the panels can move now. Although I'm trying to do a million other things justnow so it might be a while!
