His jewellery is made from acrylic and anodised aluminium.  The findings are handmade from silver or surgical stainless steel. Colour is high quality acrylic paint with gold and silver leaf.

My fashion jewellery is designed in acrylic and anodised aluminium with fittings handcrafted from sterling silver. High quality acrylic paint, gold and silver leaf are used in my vibrant designer jewellery and very wearable jewellery accessories.

Trained in fine art painting, I have worked colour into these unique jewellery accessories. My fashion jewellery is intended to be worn as dynamic fine art. Acrylic is painted in layers and finished with two coats of varnish. Aluminium is anodised to accept dyes. It is then painted and permanently sealed into very fashionable bangles, bracelets and pendants.

With some acrylic jewellery accessories, I have worked the top surface to give depth to the jewellery designs. One may look into the lower painted surface and appreciate handcrafted colours in depth. From the sides refracted light is seen in all acrylic designer jewellery.

With my paintings I have a range of ideas to present them in ways other than by simply framing them, so too with my designer jewellery. I have found a wide variety of shapes for wearing my art and I have adopted the laser cutter to help me fashion my stylish jewellery accessories.

In fact all my fashion accessories have my individual handcrafted attention to achieve a truly unique jewellery style. No two are the same.

Interested in fine art rather than the applied arts, as a painter I work with my sense and sensibilities avoiding pattern. My design is in the shape I give my handcrafted jewellery. I like to think about my paintings becoming fashion jewellery giving pleasure and satisfaction to my many clients both here and abroad.
