One day the calling of the sea was too much for Jools and her spare time is now spent combing the beaches for sea glass
Back in the real world I had spoken to Jools many times on Facebook and during a visit to swap my work at Atishoo Gallery in Charlestown near St Austell we met up for a coffee.
Since her move Jools has created Sea Treasures putting all her creative ideas into practice
I already had some of her votives in the gallery so when my close friend Janice Allen was talking about introducing a new range of silver jewellery exclusive to Studio 61 I had an idea!
Jools kindly sent up from Cornwall a small collection of her sea glass and Janice worked her own magic and the end results are stunning
Janice is my Guest Artist this month as she is also a very talented painter. See previous blog to read her interview
So this is a true collaboration between two lovely friends bringing a bit of Cornwall back to Derbyshire embraced in silver ......and they all lived happily ever after
