Raw Showcase 2013

My raw showcase was spectacular.  I was blown away by everyone's comments.  From the wooden display cases, the moss and the various ranges that I had on display - the feedback was tremendous!  I couldn't have been more proud to be an artist and to represent my work to such a great audience and in such a magnificent environment.  I want to thank everyone who bought a ticket or sponsored me on the night, I wouldn't have been able to attend without your help so thanks.  A big thanks also goes out to the RAW team - Kristen, Tash, Jess, Glen, Emily and to everyone else behind the scenes, you made my RAW experience excellent and one to remember! 

Here's some photos from the night! Enjoy!

I just came across this inspiration artist John Paul Miller.  Take a look and be as inspired as I was at how talented this man is and how gorgeous his jewellery is.  Enjoy

Raw Showcase Displays

Hey everyone thought I'd include some pics of us creating the wooden displays for my showcase.  We managed to get all the wood from a local business here in Gatton and have de-nailed, de-stapled and sanded back all the wood to bring them back to fairly new.  These wood frames are set to be the back drop of my stall display to create a natural, rustic and recycled look.  Thanks to the hard work of my mum, dad, sister and her bf they have turned out better than we imagined.
