Branding....... Oh! The excitement!!!




We were asked to design our own page promoting our work on photo shop,almost as if it were an ad in a magazine.Here is a pic of mine, I had done one last year as well but I def like this newer one more.I wanted to show as many pics of the work I have done lately as I could but with out the page being to over crowded and then of course there had to be text.....still have not decided whether I like what is written in the "ad" or "I would like to emphasize the allure of the delicate and ornate patterns found in the memories of history, thus reminding the wearer of the comfort derived from the past."
Taken from:

My jewellery symbolizes the old and the new, morphed together to form the present. Through exploring pattern and motif I hope to address the issues of detail and embellishment relating to the Victorian era that I find so appealing from a design point of view. Therefore , by constructing and deconstructing a number of these elements I would like to emphasize the allure of the delicate and ornate patterns found in the memories of history, thus reminding the wearer of the comfort derived from the past.

After a week in the Drakensburgh mountains and feeling completely better from being sick, I am happy to say that Im back and ready to go!have had a bad run of things what with not feeling well for so long and work piling up....... but now its time to get stuck into it and tie up lots of loose ends with my work.I have a few more orders that have been waiting to be done and then a couple of new designs that Im just dying to get started on!
My last post was still along the flavour of my last showing so, as I dont have pics of the wonderful view of the burg yet I will leave some shots of finished pieces that were sold.
