Blog roundup

A quick little skip around the interwebs:

• Bethany Linton bemoans spam (oh how I relate) but does share a beautiful new object
• Claire McArdle shares some amazing pieces
• oh my good lordy, in lust with David Neale’s cufflinks
• Jennifer Martin has shared some new images of older work, I especially like the Sea Twine ring
• The Needle Files highlights that 1st April is the deadline for applications for Artist in Residence at Birmingham Jewellery School (for anyone planning on popping over to Europe)
• naturally I still love reading Katherine Bowman’s blog, especially her recent ‘inspiration’ post
• Katherine Wheeler makes some interesting observations about the work in ‘Containment‘
• enjoying Kim Victoria Wearne’s opal explorations
• Lucy James says ‘think less, do more’ … I like this a whole lot
• if you’re not already regularly reading Mel Miller, add it to your list; after reading her post about getting whiter backgrounds in images, I will need to do some more investigation as this is something I’d like to improve in my photos

There are lots of lovely writings and images on many blogs; see my Links page for more.
I wish I could write about everyone, but that would take me days and days!

As you’d expect, the blogosphere has been quieter than usual for the last month or so … with many choosing this time of year for a break.

So a little whirl around the internets to see who’s back:

• Bekkah Hannah is doing it too!
• love David Neale’s larger scale-work (naturally … still)
• if you haven’t already seen it, Inari Kiuru‘s recent post is astonishingly stunning
• wonderful to see lots of new posts from Jennifer Martin
• lolly-coloured rings from Katherine Bowman
• fabulous images from Katherine Wheeler on her process from drawing to object
• gorgeous gem paintings from Lucy James
• loving Sonya Scott‘s blog post about brooch backs

Happy reading.
