Using repousee and chase techniques, I form pewter foil and sheet into objects such as mirrors, photo frames, decorative panels, boxes and jewellery. I incorporate materials which include enamels, glass and semi precious stones on wood, aluminium or silver as a base structure. No two pieces are exactly alike as no casting or pressing is involved and each object is worked individually from my own designs.

Much of the inspiration for my designs comes from the natural world and the flexibility of pewter enables me to recreate the beauty of nature in every small detail.

Studio location: Farfield Mill Heritage & Craft Centre, Sedbergh.

The Hall is between the Kings Arms Hotel and Barclays Bank in Kirkby Stephen; right in the centre of town, close to the Tourist Office.
