ABOUT ME

​

Vee lives in West Sussex and works from her studio at home. Her designs are inspired by natural forms, often found while walking on the Downs or by the sea. She collects leaves, flowers, seeds, pebbles and shells to draw and paint. From these she designs jewellery in sterling silver with semi-precious stones. She has also found inspiration during her travels in Pakistan, India, Morocco and Turkey. Making sketches of ceramic tiles, carved wood, textiles and mosaics all contribute to new ideas. 

Vee is the daughter and granddaughter of artists and her interest in art began at an early age. She spent much of her childhood drawing, painting and modelling with her sister and mother. Vee completed an Art foundation course at Newcastle College of Art before gaining a degree in 3D design specialising in jewellery at West Surrey College of Art and Design, Farnham (now UCA Farnham). 

She also paints, prints, sews and makes felt, and finds that these different activities constantly inspire new ideas in her work.

Currently, Vee shows her work in galleries in London, Hampshire, Cambridge and Sussex.
