Hello, I’m Sophie. I make silver and enamel jewellery and small enamelled objects from my home workshop in South Manchester.

I use a sgraffito technique with wet process enamel that often reflects my drawings. This is a process I developed whilst studying for my degree in Decorative Arts at Nottingham Trent University, where I produced a selection of enamelled 3D copper pebbles and chased silver pebbles for my graduate collection in 2019.
My work explores the tactile quality of objects and features a monochromatic palette. I like to take inspiration from textural surfaces and found objects I happen across whilst exploring rugged coastlines or just going about day-to-day life. I use photography as a reference and draw in alternative mediums such as collage or stitch which I use to inform my practice.

I set up The Fox Studios so that I had a bricks and mortar place in Warrington, where I could teach my passion, jewellery. I had been planning this for some time (around 3 years), before I went ahead and took the plunge. I chose Warrington for a few reasons, it's my home town, it's quite central (directly between Liverpool and Manchester) and because, well, where else would I set up jewellery classes?
I have been creative for as long as I can remember. When I left school I couldn't decide whether I wanted to do Fashion or Fine Art. I chose Fashion. I'm not quite sure why. It was an experience, and I enjoyed the journey, but I'm not sure I'm very fashionable. I have continued to sketch and paint, and have done so for many years. Due to a big life change in 2000, I started an evening class in jewellery and silversmithing and I can quite safely say I was hooked. I eventually went back to University as a mature student and finished my degree in 2008. A few short months later I was back teaching on the evening class where I'd first picked up the bug and it turned out I loved teaching.
I've been a jeweller for around 20 years now. I never expected to become a teacher, but it's something I really enjoy (and I hope it's something I'm good at, students do keep returning). I try to tailor the learning experience to the individual student, so that you can get the most out of the course.
