Formed from a salty Cornish lifestyle. Olive May created in 2016 is a collection of unique and minimal jewellery inspired by the beauty of the Cornish coast. I had a lot of time on my hands after having a life changing accident and started designing necklaces. This is when Olive May was founded. My whole life I have lived 5 minutes from the beach and have always loved the ocean. Olive May has given me the freedom and creativity that I lost. The idea of someone wearing my necklaces around their neck, carrying a bit of the ocean and being handmade here in Cornwall is exciting.

A traditional realism artist who loves to paint landscapes in oils, especially scenes of the Cornish coast. I was born in Hertfordshire in 1984 where I did a lot of drawing and some painting from an early age. When I moved to the beautiful county of Cornwall in 2002 I fell in love with the landscape which has been an inspiration to me ever since.
I love trying to capture detail in my work and I am always learning and applying new techniques.
Painting gives me a great sense of well-being and connectedness which I just couldn't live without.
