Getting Local

Here are some snaps of my local park and neighbourhood taken on a Nikon D40 SLR camera. I hope it will encourage you to take some local snaps, sometimes it's the simplest of things that have the most impact.

Jewellery Design

Here are some samples of the resin jewellery I design and sell on my Etsy shop. These area all resin and glass necklaces made with paper, beads and fabric. Every piece is different. Alongside learning to make jewellery opening an online store has been really helpful to develop ideas around branding, selling and visual appearence

Film Works

Here is a film I recently completed for my MA in Creative Writing. It is about a world where natural oils and gases have run out and the poem is written from the point of view of a parent telling a child who was just a baby when the disaster happened, what it was all about.

Filmed on a hand held camcorder. I'm on vocals and local poet Gareth Durasow, who mentored me on this project is playing the guitar. I usually write prose rather than poetry so this was a step out of my comfort zone.

Weddings

Here is a commission I did for a couple in Chicago. They sent me a few photo's to choose from and I worked up in ink and watercolour. The final image was sent as a giclee print as 20 inches by 16 inches.


Birds

Here are some illustrations of birds I recently drew for my Etsy shop. I'd noticed a lot of bird related gifts in handmade since since Autumn so wanted to have a go myself using ink and watercolour which has become my signature illustration style.
