 "My jewellery practice is largely based on natural forms, particularly flowers found historically in jewellery and ornamental production. I enjoy making pretty things, feminine things: delicate and sometimes fragile forms.
Costume jewellery, Greek and Roman ornamental tiles, petals and rosettes and Indian textile prints are some of the places I have sought inspiration.
The joy of making for me is in the process; in collating images and collecting objects. A segment, an outline, a detail from these sources becomes the basis for a particular piece of jewellery.
Whether it is metal, ceramic or enamelling processes that articulate these forms, they carry with them some trace of obsession, some kind of infatuation with a subject, form or material."
