I use genuine gemstones, silver and copper wire and plate to create unique pieces of jewellery. I also do macrame, and can teach basic macrame if you want.
The Year of Coast and Waters
25-28th September, 2020
Cowal is a peninsula in Argyll and Bute, in the west of Scotland, that extends into the Firth of Clyde. Scattered along these secret shores there live a wealth of artists expressing themselves through various media.
Here you will find painters, glass artists, ceramicists, sculptors. We have photographers, jewellers, artists working with textiles and wood. All these skilled people choose to live and work among the inspirational land that is largely hidden in this area of Argyll.
Come and discover it for yourself…
Artist Hubs
We’re making some changes to the event to protect our visitors and artists from Covid-19.
This year rather than artists hosting visitors in their own studios, there will be multiple spacious hubs, with a number of artists exhibiting at each. This will allow us to implement social distancing and improved hygiene in a safe, controlled setting.
