Body adornment

What better way for an aspiring artist to use her tools. Paint brushes are the way forward!

I believe in Recycling and Re-using , So hey, why not use bottle tops and bottles to create a head piece.

I could have used different colours for this, but decided on metallic and gold to give it a rich quality, almost luxurious which is funny considering they would have gone into the bin!

Jewellery

 

For my first year project i was working with Arabic calligraphy and to put weight into my work as my tutor indicated i made pieces of jewellery and slowly made a bit of a collection.

Previous to the jewellery making i made the Arabic alphabet on copper plates with enamel. The stencil cut outs that were left were just about to be thrown away when i decided to use them.

I put them in some indian craft paper and made a small pouch that i put inside the copper plate, which i had formed into a shape ready to use as necklace. I'm happy with the result as it symbolizes the language of my religion and also is the connection point of the continuity of the calligraphy throughout my work.

Simple ring with wire wrapped around as the theme.

I see jewellery as bits and pieces, and this brooch is the perfect example, an old watch strap, broken chain bracelet and a safety pin - these were my ingredients!

To keep the theme of the wire i made this bracelet which i really like.
