Jewellery By Shalini

Jeni Cairns: Artist and garden designer based in rural Cambridgeshire Reusing and up-cycling have become an important and integral part of her practice, especially in the various show gardens she has created at Harrogate and RHS Hampton court flower show this year where she won a coveted gold and best in category for “A space to connect and grow”. The use of steel drums have proved a great “blank canvas” on which to depict the fragility of nature yet also represent its strength and enduring resilience. Read more via Jeni Cairns « ESC Artists .

Christina Stevens: Artist in Lincolnshire working mostly in ceramics. "Most of my work is hand build, coil, pinch, and roll as well as other construction methods, often utilising formers to help support the clay until it is firm enough to support itself. I have a variety of press-moulds as well as sprigs and 2, 3, 4 piece plaster moulds I have made myself ( these are used mostly for slip-casting the ball jointed figures’ arms and torso.) I also use found objects, lace, plants and windflowers pressed into the clay to provide detail and pattern."  Read More via Christina Stevens « ESC Artists .

Sarah Clark: Batik art silk scarves designed in Cambridgeshire "I make wearable art silk wraps, these picture scarves are fluid and the design is revealed or hidden depending on how the scarf is worn: draped over the shoulders the full story can be appreciated or loosely tied at the neck the design becomes an abstract picture of shape and colour."

Cathi Prince: Stained Glass artist based in South Lincolnshire "I love working with the colours and textures found in the various types of stained glass that I use. Sometimes I will work with simple geometric and random patterns, playing with shades and contrasts. At other times I get ideas from around me, the flowers in my garden and the fish in the pond outside my studio door. Walking my dog I collect fragments of designs from the shapes of plants in the fields and hedges and the birds that I see. Using the lead as my line I try to draw these elements and ideas together."  Read more via Cathi Prince « ESC Artists .

Jewellery Sale! This is older stock that needs to go to make room for new pieces I am making. There is absolutely nothing wrong with these pieces, they have just been with me for a while and need a new home! There are also a lot of beads, findings and components I have collected since I first started jewellery making in 2008. Some of this I no longer use in my work, some I use very rarely. I am therefore offering beads at almost give-away prices so other makers, crafters, those starting out in jewellery making and hobby beaders can get a good range at very affordable prices. view items for sale via Under £6.00 Clearance Items - Shalini Austin Designs… hand-crafted for YOU! .
