I have finally gotten around to re-photographing my EarWing Collection on the Ear.
In the past this was just too difficult as the model's ears would get red and swollen within a few changes of earrings.(Try it at home!)
This time I created a life sized photograph, backed with rubber to create the 3D aspect of an ear and away we go. No complaints about rough handling of the model, No gentle massaging of the models ego. Just me and my Art!
This design is one of my original EarWing series. The waves intended to reflect both ancient Celtic Culture and our own Cultures relationship with the sea.

Contemporary jewellery needs to be tempered with good design, fine workmanship and an understanding of the need for a piece to be both beautiful and wearable. I believe that jewellery is a language. Yes, it can and should, be something beautiful in it's own right, but each piece also tells a story about it's owner and it is contemporary jewellery that has by far the largest vocabulary.

Cultural Significance
Custom made for a Pacific Island family to present to a son coming of age.
This pendant, hand carved in Sterling Silver, depicts a traditional tool that is presented at "coming of age" the tool is normally made of wood and is used for a variety of traditional tasks.
I hung this from a simple hand made cable chain.
