Hi all, This is a very quick blog post this morning to tell you about the new free tutorial on YouTube. I managed to find time to get this one done yesterday – after a few full-on weeks in the studio playing with embossing powders and polymer clay. Gosh who had any idea there was…
Gosh it seems so long ago now and I’m only just getting around to doing the blogpost for the Griffith workshops 2018. I must thank the Griffith Regional Art Gallery, in particular Raina Savage for organising and co-ordinating these workshops.

Incorporating them into unique, art jewellery pieces is quite a passion of mine and I’ve got quite a collection of them now. These two pieces came about as part of an online art exhibition…
I’ve been playing around with some very awesome little flakes lately (Lumiere Lusters) and just wanted to share a few pics of what they are and what they do. I have to let you know, I’m in the very early stages of playing with this product and I’m sure the more I work with them,…
