Oak Fine jewellery

I was asked by the lovely Hannah of Amelia's magazine to do some illustrations for her interview with Oak fine jewellery, a fine jewellery boutique selling forest inspired Fair Trade jewellery which you can read here. Oak fine is run by Jo-Anne Owdud and Parul Tolentino who "love objects that have a story to tell, whether that’s with a sentimental meaning, or perhaps something unexpected. Historical references play a big part in what they love to explore and their surroundings are a huge inspiration. The Richmond Park collection was inspired by the sentiments of family and life, conveyed through the power of nature and their namesake; the ‘Oak’ tree which is also their favourite playground!"

Read the interview and see all the lovely illustrations here.

I did two illustrations for this brand, one of the Richmond Park necklace and the other of the Treasured Tree beautiful acorn necklace which you can see below.

How do you do.

illustration by me

Well I'm nearly finished my project finally. Just have a wee bit more to do then my hand in is next week (scary!). Been a bit of an odd week, trying to get on track with everything. I had a few setbacks in the last week so I've had to reevaluate and try on focus on what had to be done.

Looking forward to getting project out of the way so I can focus on whats next.. and hoping of course to delve back into illustration which I have not had the time to do lately. Sorry for the boringness hopefully my blog will be back filled with pretty colourful illustrations soon.

Watch this space :D
