| I graduated with a BA Hons in Metalwork and Jewellery in 2007. I then
gained great support in refining my design and making practice during the
one-year postgraduate course at Bishopsland Workshops. The discovery of
chasing and repoussé has allowed me to approach a piece in the same way
as a painting. In my work the chasing provides the beginnings of the overall
form of the piece. The metal is then shaped on wood as I work from the
main focal lines of the patterns. Recently I have been using engraving to
compliment the depth in the chased work. Myriad points of engraved light
ripple the surface of the pieces to enhance the character of water. |

| I am excited by the sensual and rich forms that can be created in metal and
believe my nature is reflected through my work. It is a delight to be
absorbed in every stage from design to the finished piece. The rhythmic
process of making, using hand-raising techniques, can push the metal to
its limits and emphasises the fluid vitally of each form. |
