Lauren Batchelor Jewellery: November 2011
http://laurenbatchelorjewellery.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 16, 2011. For my final display I continued with my use of jars to show my pieces. I found that the distortion created by the water and glass was particularly prominent in the dark. The way that the lights highlighted my pieces in the dark reminded me of how deep sea creatures look while being filmed when they are illuminated by the camera lights. Freeman uses materials such as Paua shell, Mother of Pearl, Baler shell and Scallop shells. Each of his pieces tells a different story.

Lauren Batchelor Jewellery: June 2011
http://laurenbatchelorjewellery.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 22, 2011. Monday, June 13, 2011. This is what playing with platinum will do to you. Sorry Mish ;). After the metal prep was done, which to me is the worst part of working with platinum, I could get to soldering. which is the best part! I started off by bending up my teardrop frames. Once I was given my platinum, and my bench was clean and ready, I started making my earrings. As seen in the photo below, when melting or annealing platinum we have to look through a piece of dark glass to...

Monday, February 20, 2012. New Year, New Job. I recently started working for David Batchelor Designs (my dad :) ). Although I miss the freedom of creating my own pieces, I am enjoying learning new techniques! I have to adjust to working full time and paying taxes unfortunately. Here is a clasp I made for a pearl necklace. March 15, 2012 at 5:09 PM. Hi Lauren . This looks wonderful! Keep it up. Chris. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Lauren Batchelor Jewellery: March 2011
http://laurenbatchelorjewellery.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 29, 2011. While browsing through The Carrot Box Blog, I found a Jeweller called Mirjim Hiller from Germany. These rings are interesting and I find that they relate to my work because the emphasis to detail on the shanks is as much as on top of the ring itself. Monday, March 28, 2011. The underneath of the setting though I am very happy with! To make sure the shank flowed into the setting I tapered and forged the ends, then moulded them around the shapes that i had previously pierced out...

Lauren Batchelor Jewellery: February 2011
http://laurenbatchelorjewellery.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 15, 2011. Friday, February 4, 2011. New year, New design book! For our first B-Tech project this year we're making ourselves design books, and we get to create the cover :). Seeing as the cover will have to be 2D, I plan on using photos I have taken and using water colours to paint sections of my photos. The colour and texture of the coral in the above picture is very interesting, i would like to explore this using watercolours in my cover. Wednesday, February 2, 2011.

Lauren Batchelor Jewellery: October 2011
http://laurenbatchelorjewellery.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 9, 2011. When reflecting on this exhibition and deciding what worked and what could have been improved, I thought about this. Feedback that I recieved about my display was that the jars forced the viewer to engage with my work. Because people had to bend down and look into the jars it demanded more attention. Another comment that was made was about the water and how it distorts the shape and colours of the piece once submerged. Tuesday, October 4, 2011. Stumbling onto this way of threadin...

Lauren Batchelor Jewellery: Cheryl Eve Acosta
http://laurenbatchelorjewellery.blogspot.com/2011/11/cheryl-eve-acosta.html
Wednesday, November 16, 2011. When looking at Acosta’s work, I find it so obvious that her inspiration and references come from the ocean. Acosta grew up along the coast of Puerto Rico. In her book, ‘Hidden in Nature’ (2009), she discusses how growing up by the sea has influenced her design direction from an early age. She looks at sea life from a scientific point of view, using aquatic processes to fuel her work. She uses a variety of materials for her jewellery, some of these being:. Enamel, Gold Plated.
