My sketchbook at the moment
These are a few pages from my most recent sketchbook.
You can see where the Hokusai ring came from and a few variations on the theme, which I think will turn out quite nicely too!
These are some designs for tiaras:
I think Smaug would approve of having a tiara designed after him! He would be sitting on a pile of jewels, which I think would be suitably sparkly.

Ocean Waves New Jewellery Range
This is a new jewellery range that I am working on at the moment. The inspirations are Hokusai's wave, Tudor portraiture featuring Elizabeth I and the defeat of the Spanish Armada using silver and the gemstone kyanite.
