I took my work with me to Denmark after the Graduate Show for a small window exhibition at Iron Inc. Gallery in Northern Copenhagen. It was so wonderful of Mari Keto to accept my work and let me have a little show for family and friends.

Retrospective Seven
Retrospective Six
Ok, now I got really serious. The Piece De Resistance!
a proto type.
The Almost finished piece. It was made from two brass discs hand raised into top and bottom. I don't know how I managed. I remember endless nights of hammering, sore hands, achy head and many of the other students getting tired of me making all that noise! Soldering the two halves together took two large torches and an enourmous amount of flux and solder. My face was red for two days after with the after-glow!

Retrospective Five
2006 was an exciting year for me. It was my final year at NMIT and I really got to play and be creative creating a body of work for the End of year Exhibition.
Below is the necklace called 'DOZEN'. It was made from a dozen eggs, painted black and some decorated with gold leaf. I strung them on black silk thread.
This bowl was made from gilding metal and copper, soldered with silver solder for a three colour effect. It was a real challenge making this. I got really good joins, but then when I would try and raise the bowl with my hammer, the seams would come apart. I was so relieved when it was finally finished!

Retrospective Three
I started making Felt Beads in 2004, I just taught myself and invented my own technique. For Fashion Week 2005 I entered into a competition called 'Handworked to Wear' and didn't win, but got a good spot at Melbourne Town Hall.
This piece is called 'The not so perfect circle'

Retrospective Two
Retrospective One
I have spent the morning going thru my old photos. To try and create a little retrospective of the things I've made in the last 7 years since I started. There are so many pieces that have passed thru my hands and into other people's possession without a photograph to prove it. Note to self: Always photograph your work!
In 2005 I organised 2 exhibitions with a group of friends.
We called them Emergi and the first one was at Rose Street Artist Market.
Here are two of my pieces:
