Featured Maker - Gwyneth Williamson
Gwyneth's jewellery is made from lasercut wood, silver, copper, brass and occasionally gold. She loves to explore organic and geometric textures, shapes and patterns. She recently became a member of the Art House, refreshing her print making skills, sparking an exploration using wood, paint and print in her work & bringing colour into her work.
Using linocut patterns and the off-cut shapes left over from her laser-cut wood, Gwyneth mono-print patterns onto the plywood, layering and playing until she likes what she sees. Working intuitively, Gwyneth never really know what patterns and textures will emerge.
Watch this short film below about Gwyneth & her work.

Featured Maker - Toby Cotterill
|
Toby's work celebrates the natural world, particularly arthropods, imagining them evolving onto and around the human body. Toby uses traditional silversmithing techniques, forging sheet silver over steel stakes and into wooden formers using hammers and punches. Three-dimensional forms are articulated, fused, and finished with oxides or gold to create lively, humorous pieces of wearable sculpture. |

Featured Maker - Jessica LangfordJessica creates both sterling silver jewellery and hand engraved glass.
Jessica's jewellery is often influenced by things around her and each collection has a strong style and journey to creating it. Her latest collection is named 'Shade'. It is based on the shapes created by light and shade and the contrast between the two. Each piece of jewellery is designed to create its own interesting shadows. Another recent collection 'Rock' is based on sedimentary rocks to signify the strong layers in a family and how each person is important in the structure of a family. |

Featured Maker - Kate RhodesInspired by the countryside surrounding her home in Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire, Kate uses colour as a visual language through her jewellery together with inspirations from sculpture & patterns. Her initial designs and sketches tell a story; she loves to doodle and draw & then take them to the workbench to experiment & play, before taking the elements back to the drawing board to create stylish wearable jewellery.

Featured Maker - Evie LeachEvie's angular jewellery designs take inspiration from geometry found in nature and architecture. Evie likes to use clean lines and angles to create sterling silver pieces, often oxidised to give contrasting black and silver colours, and team them with uneven cut or rough semi-precious gemstones.
