My designs are inspired by my rural environment – from changing landscapes, windswept beaches, and stormy seas, to the minutiae found in rock pools and gardens. “Drawing” with metal, I create sculptural pieces capturing movement and quality of line. The work is handmade, using traditional gold and silversmithing techniques. I choose to use precious metals – materials that stand the test of time, as I am interested in the role of jewellery as heirlooms that are handed down, providing intimate memories for future generations. Over the years I have exhibited widely in this country and Europe. I now enjoy a quiet life in my studio on the Isle of Tiree. For more information visit www.dotdotsim.com
