Craft Gallery In 2009 the Craft Gallery underwent a facelift which increased our available space and included specially commissioned shop and jewellery counters that were funded by an award from the Arts Council. Lincolnshire-based furniture designer Tim Rinaldi has made two beautiful, complementary designs in solid ash, black oak and zebrano veneer. The addition of a bespoke jewellery counter has enabled us to greatly expand the range and number of jewellery makers represented and the new space created by the relocation of the shop counter has been filled with an extended collection of print browsers showing original paintings, photographs and a wide selection of contemporary printmaking.

This month’s featured jeweller is Jessica Sheriff Jessica Sherriff creates a unique range of contemporary acrylic jewellery. Inspired by the colours and views of her beautiful surroundings, she uses her own photographic images of Yorkshire, from the overall landscape to close-ups of trees and flowers, and displays them within the jewellery using a unique printing technique.
Jessica uses the acrylic in a variety of thickness and combines matt and shiny surfaces to create an unusual distorted but intriguing effect to the images. This technique allows her to create both bold and subtle colour waves and designs. Jessica enjoys exploring the possibilities of acrylic and her enthusiasm grows the more she experiments. |
