...wow, I think I have seen a necklace by Rob Ryan in 'making stuff, an alternative craft book'... thanks for sharing all the other stuff tho. His work is all so so beautiful! Another blog to watch. Crumbs I never get anything real done anymore as there's just so much to see!

Rob's stuff is fantastic, love his stuff - always reminds me of lovely woodcuts. If anyone gives it a try I suggest blades, blades and more blades! Dull blades = bloody fingers :(

Thanks for the info - I ripped a picture of his wedding dress out of a magazine and tucked it away then was happy to see is work on the cover of Erasure's Nightbird CD (and associated singles). Which makes discovering his blog a very very happy occassion indeed!
