Grace Kelly - gems from the Palace.

I am always looking for new inspiration and when the recent announcement that Castlereagh boutique - Sydney were due to showcase Grace Kelly's collection, I Immediately immersed myself in viewing diamonds and created a special piece featuring the butterfly fossil.

I generally enjoy working with pencils and acrylic paints however, I was tempted to face the challenge of watercolour and I am pleased with the outcome and will continue to develop my skills using this medium.

This piece is now on it's journey to a new home and I hope the owner has as much appreciation for a symbolic period, as I have in the making.
