Fimo Gifts
I have recently been enjoying working with Fimo and have made a variety of gifts that I have given away to friends and family. I am currently in the process of making some hand made Fimo broach cards for the Made in Roath Festival in October. If you would like a custom made Fimo broach/magnet card made, please get in touch with an idea or keep your eyes peeled for some being added to this page.
Hand Painted Recycled Glass
I have been collecting glass jars, ramekins, vases, containers and fancy drinking glasses from second hand shops and from my own use to recycle into unique hand painted creations that make great gifts. I thoroughly enjoy being able to give something that would be discarded a new life.
Collaboration with Harry Champan, Wood turner, 2011.
I have always felt a connection with nature and found painting to be the most comfortable way of expressing it. With the bowls that Harry Champan has made i found i was drawn into the grain of the wood and found my self imagining the great tree it came from. For this collaborative project, I have taken my inspiration from the natural elements found within the wood of the bowls, and the tree of which they were made. I have also incorporated the flora and fauna of the trees and its inhabitants.
