Hi, I’m Ness—a fine artist and jewellery maker living in beautiful North Cornwall. My seascape paintings and handcrafted silver jewellery are all inspired by the incredible coastal landscape that surrounds me.
My creative journey started in surface pattern and textile design, eventually leading to a Fine Art degree. I fell in love with Cornwall as a teenager, and in 1998, I finally made the move and made Cornwall my home.
My home studio is where I paint, make jewellery, and run workshops, often with the “help” of my mischievous puppy and free-range hens. When I’m not working, you’ll find me cold-water swimming, paddle-boarding (when the sea is calm), sketching on the coast path, or tootling around in my vintage camper van.
I love connecting with the incredible community of artists and makers here in Cornwall, sharing ideas and inspiration over a glass of wine (or tea) at the village pub. This is a truly special place to live, work, and visit.
If you’d like to explore my work, you’ll find my paintings and jewellery here on my website at Wave 7 gallery in Wadebridge, Penwith in St. Ives, and Zeath in Polzeath. I’d love to welcome you to one of my workshops, where we can create something amazing together.
