Handwriting forms the starting point for my work; sections from old postcards, letters and documents are randomly selected and gathered together. Stamps are added to introduce colour with contrasting print, words, numbers pattern and imagery.

The messages are always ambiguous and represent the idea of short uncertain conversations. The contrasts of writing styles and the colourings are as important as other subtle contrasts.

Inspiration also comes from mixing opposites together; the old and new, precious and non-precious, decorative and minimal, linear and solid. I produce necklaces, bracelets, brooches, rings and earrings in small editions and as one off pieces.
