I've been painting a bit...

So I've been painting a bit instead of doing jewellery...

Getting there but it's so slow...

Oil on canvas...

Subject is Alucard from Hellsing...

my best friends engagement ring....

So this is my best friends engagement ring... I made it for her... Yes I sound like a retard... anyway it was fun... 18ct white gold with a .50ct centre stone....

updates from my black little heart...

So my dearest monkeys... so here follows the latest update from the little black heart range... I have been getting requests from people about the pieces so here are the two latest available...
Unofficially the range isn't out yet, but I mean really, do I need a grand opening?

So this is the little black heart rosary... The beads on this one are black tourmaline and cracked clear quartz... Many variations on this piece are available, my favourite is red coral with black tourmaline... Price is dependant on the stones used...

This little beauty is my other baby... based on the claddagh rings of old, this is a promise necklace or for all intensive purposes, just something pretty... Available as a brooch too...

a bit reveal....

So here's a big surprise for you.... I'm showing off some of the renderings for the little black heart range....

This is a rosary, with semi precious stones, will be available in any colour beads.
A winged heart pendant. Thinking of also making a similar brooch....

Hoop earrings

Chandelier earrings

And a mens ring....

So what do we think? There are more in the range but these are my favourites....

the first of many to come....

So these are photo's I took from a cast I did.... These pieces are mean to be for the little black heart, sneaky you guys see some pieces I haven't told anyone will be in the range yet... hehehe, naughty... and some of the pieces are for my Btech range...

The Little black heart is going well, there are going to be 13 pieces in the range. My Btech range however is a little more problematic. Seems one needs an artist statement, but what is mine? And do I really want to follow a set pattern when I am not sure that pattern is what i want to follow? Time to think, I think....

busy, busy boy....

So I've been a busy busy boy...

This is what I've been keeping myself busy with... The upper picture are cufflinks I've made for my body of work going towards my Btech. I had loads of fun with them, and I'm going to make one or two more versions of them.... 3 down, 37 left....

And then these little beauties are stock for the little black heart range... Yes finally I've started making... The designs were finalised a week ago and orders have been coming in from people who have seen them, so stockpiling needs to be done... Next I'm doing the razorblades...

So this is what I've been busy with, I'm teaching at the same time so I keep myself busy with students, studies and silver.... The 3 S's for me....

website... the preview

So this is the look for my website....

This is just going to be the general layout and design... going to start gettin it into gear... what do you all think?
