I made this pewter earing using a wooden earing as a template. However I discarded this idea because pressing the wood onto the cuttlefish meant losing the natural markings of the cuttlefish.

- About Surtsey/Ellie Macindoe
- I set up this blog to keep a visual diary of my developements in design and to allow you to see the progression of my work. Its also a good way to remind myself what stage i'm at and to inspire me to continue making work. I studied textiles for a year at Glasgow School of Art, and, feeling it was too fashion based, I decided change to the Fine Art department. But four years of Fine Art later, I found that my sculptural work was developing a more textiles look to it. I was very interested in texture, layers and material manipulation. And for my degree show in 2006 I exhibited works made with rubber, rip stop (kite fabric) and brushed wax. Now in 2011, i'm developing a body of work based on jewelry design using bone, wood and acrylic. I have been experimenting with pewter as a means to eventually make work with silver. I plan to develope a body of work that will show experimentation and a childish curiosity with materials at the root of the design.
