Angelus - Ring

Another new addition to the "Angelus" range (which is coming along nicely). This is the smallest of the three adjustable Angelus rings and will fit a size J - L. The next will fit a M-O and the biggest will fit a P-R (well if it all goes according to plan, lol)

Hope you like the design, it's lovely and comfy to wear, I've been trialing the size L myself ;-)

Art Clay Silver Course

Here's a peek at what I've been up to with some of my recent Sunday silver-clay workshops. :-)
Students learnt to handle the clay, roll, texture, cut, refine, set bails, set small kiln-friendly stones, and how to get a good shine on their finished jewellery.
These are my students first pieces ~ I think they did spectacularly well don't you?
If you're interested in learning yourself, then the next workshop is in Market Deeping on Sunday 15th February.

Angelus

I'm working on a new "figurative" line with icons and angels, so far I've created a design for a necklace and a ring. The first ring's a small size so I need to make a medium and a large (they'll be adjustable).
Here's one of the first necklaces, it has a faintly angelic /iconic look hence the name "Angelus"

"Incantation" Pendant

I've been combining fine silver with polymer clay and other metals. This is a funky "tribal design" that I thought looked like a cross between Aztec and Incan.
I'll be trying out different variations in the next few weeks, perhaps with copper in the centre layer & riveted together?
Hope you like the preview ;)

Aquamarine Ring

Another unique Christmas creation for an lover of Aquamarine!
We used a created stone which was kiln set for extra strength &
to create a more organic feel, we hand carved the rings centre line. Unfortunately my camera can't capture the amount of sparkle in the stone, which combined with the fine silver made a beautifully feminine piece. I'm told the recipient was thrilled!

Obscure Road Commission

Here's the end result for the writer of the "Obscure Road" graphic novel range. It is based on a fusion of two of his characters faces.
"Secret Emo" & "Issues Boy". Alexelence designed the fusion image & I created the pendant to his design..

The antiqued effect and patination adds a depth to the design that we were really pleased with. Who knows, when the novel is published we might need to make a whole range ;)
