A Creative Journey: 2005 onwards

A Creative Journey: 2005 onwards

I was invited to take part in an exhibition in the USA called "Hanging in Balance". It was an exhibition of neckpieces so I developed a series of neckpieces for that show. I was then awarded the commission to make a piece for Birmingham Museum so I also made a neckpiece for their collection.
