Caroline studied Jewellery Design at Grays School of Art, Aberdeen and makes distinctive, tactile and colourful enamelled jewellery and small pieces in from her studio in Dunfermline, Fife, Scotland.
She works mainly in silver and vitreous enamel, exploring traditional enamelling and jewellery making techniques in a spontaneous and experimental way to create mark making, textures and form inspired by the Scottish coastline.
Each stage is made by hand; Caroline prefers the fluidity this gives her work; nothing is identical and she enjoys the connection this gives her with each piece.
Both transparent and opaque enamels are used in variations of traditional Champleve and Basse-taille techniques as well as Stencilling and stoning, matt and glossy finishes.
Caroline loves and needs to use colour in her work and enamel gives her a palette that echoes the light, seascape, plants, flotsam and sealife found on the shoreline.
