Wow when i first saw this as i was scrolling down the page i thought 'sea creature'! I could really see you style working with inspiration from textures like anenomes (spelling?), star fish and all those beautifully coloured and textured things you get miles down below - jelly fish, lion fish, those tubular things with the frothy bits coming out......i could go on!

Beautiful as always and the frothymossy bits add a really interesting dimension to it

Oooh and i was wondering - do you have any hints about how you photograph your work - it always looks so professional and as i am working on some smaller bits (ie not full costume sized) i would love to know....do you use a cloth as background and how do you light the object? I hope you don't mind me asking! its just that my photography skills are pretty poor!

I take my pics on black surface, usually just by natural light. no harsh light preferably, so if your in front of a window, pull the lace curtain in front to difuse the light, and then I correct the image in Photoshop- and I make the b/g totally black so they float on my web/ livejournal pages [link]
Hope that helps!!

I'm a bit behind with all my comments and devwatches, and I see so many beautiful things of yours come up, so I just wanted to leave one comment, as say that as usual, I'm impressed beyond words with your beautiful creations.

Oh and meant to say - have you heard of Ernst Haeckel - drawings of all sorts of life forms from 19th century - i think his book is Art Forms in Nature - it is the most amazing and inspiring book ever!!!! I use it all the time for stuff and never get bored of the colours and details in his drawings - there is loads of really unusual things that I just can't help be inspired by!!!

thanks so much - that really helps! I'll give it a try. I have viewed your site sooooo many times, coveting what i unfortunatley cannot yet afford (the woes of a new freelancer!) but I have made a promise that with my first commission I shall order a necklace from you!!! I know you cannot exactly repeat your past pieces but would you be able to do a version of your toadstool piece when I am ready?
