eels all over the interwebs

I have been so lucky to be featured in a few gorgeous blogs lately, thought I'd share...

The amazing Danielle from Sometimes Sweet featured me in her regular Tattoo Tuesday post. Have a read here.

It was so great to have the opportunity to talk about myself outside of my work. It was heaps of fun to share images of all the artwork I collect on my body, which is something I haven't really done before!

I also wrote a guest post on Winter Love for beautiful mama Natalie about the love of my life, my son Cash. I talked about the awesome adventure of motherhood and juggling working at home on my jewellery business with a young baby. Find it here.

The very talented jewellery designer and artist Sophie from That Vintage also did a shout-out to me and my work on her blog recently. This is such a huge compliment, because she's a super rad lady! Have a look here.

Keep an eye out on the tenmoregirls blog too! I will be a featured artist on there very soon.

While I'm sharing links, I should also let you know that I have recently listed some new stuff on two more online marketplaces... 

The awesome new Young Republic site will be launching very soon, and I have already started listing items. The brand new site is very exciting and the Australian designers featured on there are looking brilliant. Check out a sneak preview of my shop here.

I have also joined the Australian based ethical handmade store Blue Caravan. It is a beautiful site that promotes sustainable design, locally made products, organic materials as well as ethical and fair trade production. All the stuff I love! Have a look at my shop here.

blogging for tenmoregirls

As you may know already, this year, I am part of the tenmoregirls collective! A Sydney based group of contemporary jewellery designer/makers that come together annually to produce amazing exhibitions of concept based work. Very exciting!

I'll be blogging here regularly about the development of my work for the show this year, titled 10 Girls. 10 Colours. But I will also be blogging over on the tenmoregirls site.

I'm writing a regular Friday weekly post about the production of the event itself. I will be covering topics like; grant applications and securing sponsorship, budgeting, marketing, print design and production, building the exhibition space itself and all of the other amazing things that go into making an exhibition come together.

I find this part of being an artist and designer really exciting and challenging. Go and check it out at www.tenmoregirls.com. I'm sure you'll find it as fascinating as I do!

This year just keeps getting better and better! I was asked by the awesome tenmoregirls collective to join their 2011 exhibition! This year entitled, 'Ten Colours, Ten Girls'. I'm very excited about being a part of this show and will be blogging about the development of my work for the exhibition here, as well as through the tenmoregirls blog.

tenmoregirls are a collective of contemporary jewellery and object designer/makers that all studied Jewellery and Object at the Design Centre Enmore. Beginning in 2008 with 'Girls for Boys', each year the conceptual focus of the group changes. This year, each of the ten artists have been assigned a different colour to explore through our work. The gallery, yet to be announced, will look amazing with all these interpretations of colour.

In addition to making work for this show, all the contributing artists work as a team to put together the exhibition itself. Including writing grant applications, approaching sponsors, running promotions, photography, advertising, building, catering, PR, finance, mailing lists....etc etc.... It really is a big, exciting job and I can't wait to get into it!
