Have you ever wondered if you could combine encaustics and jewellery? Me too!  I discovered a process that’s so fun, and the results are so beautiful that I can’t wait to share it with you! I take my inspiration from nature and from gemstones like turquoise, lapis and Malecite. I love the variety of colors that swirl through these beautiful stones. I’m also inspired by translucent flower petals and leaves. But, of course, sources of inspiration are all around us and the possibilities are endless!
