Statement
My work is based around art silver clay and silver smithing techniques . I love using graphic prints and striking aged technique to give it it’s quirky edge of antique New England, medieval and even shakespearean designs. My latest designs have started to encorporate tiny touches of enamel to create a new exclusive range for JoJoJewellery.
JoJoJewellery has been in business for nearly four years. In this time I have established my work in over 40 stockists nationwide, and have been chosen to join the website www.notonthehighstreet.com, and also been entered in the 2010 Craft & Design Selected Awards. I also have a yearly venue at the Arts Trail where I serve on the committee.
