| Place of origin |
The inspiration for this ring was the artist's seven year old daugher, Mardi. It is a garden scene, incorporating small insects such as snails and ladybirds in the bold colours which enamel permits. 'Supernature' is a naive vision of nature, inspired by a child's view of the world.
