From the designer

"I have been day-dreaming most of my life, creating work that is wondrous, sometimes wise but always heart-warming!

I create my jewellery from a combination of gold and silver, with a number of the jewellery pieces incorporating kinetic parts; birds swing, stones rock and hearts roll!

I like to work in a number of art media; bronze, etching, print, painting and wearable art pieces.

Follow the Movement!"
