Winner of #the_heart_series

Carolyn Barker creates beauty out of precious metals and decorates her artistic products with Australian gems. It was nature that inspired her to create startlingly blue opal and gold and shakudu earrings embedded with tiny white diamonds. Her walks along a glistening aquamarine ocean and golden sands helped her to create these beautiful  bespoke handmade items, sure to be treasured by its owner. Visit her website to see these lovely pieces. 

Carolyn has generously provided a prize to the winner of this month's  competition that I ran on Instagram called, #the_heart_series. The lucky winner's prize is a sterling silver brooch in a gingko leaf shape and from Carolyn's 'Fallen leaves'  series.

Carolyn who judged the competition has awarded the prize to  @juliabesidethesea for this beautifully composed photograph which enchants with its marine inspired theme.
 
“The black of the seaweed complimented by the subtle blue mussel shell
hearts captured my imagination in the early days of the competition” says Carolyn. 
“Many wonderful entries followed but this one lingered in my heart."

 

Congratulations Julia -  such a lovely entry.
