About

Hello and thanks for dropping by!
I'm Lindsay, an artist, illustrator and maker based in Glasgow, Scotland. Alongside my illustration and public art commissions, I love painting furniture and making jewellery and ceramics pieces - soap dishes, sconces and plant hangers - which relate to my illustration work, featuring quirky human, animal and cosmic characters.

JEWELLERY PROCESS
All my jewellery is entirely made and decorated by hand - although I repeat designs, no two pairs are completely identical. I decorate using fine brushes and black or different coloured underglaze and often scratch into this with a sharp implement to create fine lines, known as sgraffito. The pieces are then fired a first time before being glazed on the front for a glossy finish and fired a second time. Finally, fixtures are attached - I use hypoallergenic stainless steel earposts and sterling silver hoops and chains to minimise irritation. My jewellery is fun, bold and graphic, bringing an arty air to your attire!



Pictured above: pre-fired jewellery... the next step is to decorate with underglaze and a sharp implement to scratch out some lines...


After decoration the pieces are fired a first time and come out looking like this. Next I apply a gloss glaze...


And here they are after a second firing! The gloss glaze has come up nice and shiny and the colours are brighter...

Here's another batch - the different fittings are attached before the final packaging is added!

COMMISSIONS
I happily take on commissions when I have the time... that could mean making a ceramic piece, a pair of earrings, a handpainted piece of furniture, even a mural!
Email me with your enquiry at : [email protected] or via the contact form and I will consider if your commission is something I can take on and how much it would cost. Looking forward to your missives!
