Toby Eagle Jewellery
I handcraft and custom designed each piece of Toby Eagle jewellery primarily from reclaimed sterling silver, gold and other high quality materials because of the hands on nature and traditional processes used this means that each piece is uniquely different. I make both women’s and men’s jewellery and draw inspiration from the organic forms found on the coastline of the Northern Beaches.

Maimai Glass
I use various techniques for glass art including glassblowing and flame working.
One of the main features of my glass art is that glass changes colours by absorbing or reflecting lights, especially jewellery made of silver glass, which shows more colour changes as if the glass is “alive”. My artwork is inspired by nature that she comes across in her daily life such as flowers in a park or sea animals

Waters Edge Sea Glass
I work with sea glass collected from local beaches to create unique, environmentally friendly jewellery. Sea glass comes from shards of discarded bottles that have been conditioned and weathered from years of tumbling in the sea and sand. Some pieces glass can be over 200 years old, each individual piece having its own history and beauty.

Karen Mazonas
I take my inspiration from nature’s beauty, all my work is original. From the initial concept, I hand draw then carve onto linoleum. I then hand baron print my work using archival inks and papers.
Pod and Pod
I paint the original work on canvas in a style using a handmade stencil. The work is focused on Australian botanicals and local Northern Beaches coastal scenes. The archival prints are printed in Brookvale and cards are printed in Sydney. The cushions are a new product which are hand printed in my studio in Newport.

Becky Williams Textiles
All cloth is prepared using a variety of shibori techniques, to create different patterns the fabric is folded, twisted, and bound using thread, clamps & resist shapes. The prepared fabric is dyed in the indigo vat for various lengths of time to develop different depths of indigo blue. Next every item is hand washed repeatedly to remove all the dye, and left to soak in fabric conditioner to soften. Finally the cloth hung out to dry before being ironed & ready to sell. The small felt vessels are wet 3D hand felted and embellished with embroidery stitch details.

Cameron Ingle
My art is inspired by the ocean and made for the ocean. I designed each vase on CAD software and 3D printed them with fully recycled filament. This plastic came all the way from the Netherlands, and is derived from recycled PET bottles and PLA packaging, making use of wasted plastic and turning it into something functional and beautiful. The plastic water bottles are collected, washed, shredded, melted down into pellets and converted into filament, which can be used for printing. 3D printing is a great medium to create both functional and aesthetic models whilst giving wasted plastic bottles new purpose. I have an ocean series based on waves and corals.

We are Tram
I am a professional graphic designer and I create all of the designs myself, using a combination of photographs, digital illustration techniques and hand-painted textures.

Grahame McKenzie
Most of the timber is sourced from our own farm and in the main is salvaged timber. I do not cut down living trees to source my material. All pieces are carved by me at either our farm or in Newport. I prefer to sculpt free hand. All the finishing is done by me and mostly by hand, I prefer to use a waxed finish.
Glyn Condon Ceramics
I enjoy boating along our coast and encounter a wide variety of marine creatures, which inspire my work. I use porcelain because it provides a high quality and functional blank canvas for designs and colour. My pieces are fired in a gas kiln to 1280 degrees centigrade, which makes them durable, and dishwasher safe.

Joanna Greenwood Illustration
I create artworks by hand, mainly focussing on pencil, ink, charcoal and pastel. I love portraying items that are well loved by their owner, and say something about them or their personality. It is great fun trying to incorporate the movement or purpose of the item within the artwork also. Print versions of the artworks are available on raw edge, handmade paper to compliment the energy in the artworks.

I fuse, slump the glass in my kiln, after the firing process, the glass is polished, and cold fused. My designs are fresh and contemporary reflecting the joy of living on the Northern Beaches. My jewellery is considered wearable art.
