Polyester resin is my main material, which is combined with other materials such as acrylic, paper wire and sheet metal. By developing ways of introducing and layering colour I try to exploit the translucent qualities of resin. In some recent work I have been exploring textures-both produced by myself (in wax, metal and clay) and found textures. I like the idea of using the surface of something that would not normally be associated with jewellery or be thought of as attractive such as corrugated cardboard and bubblewrap.
