Julie has always been drawn to creative endeavours and with a love of shiny things and distinct 'magpie' tendencies, was naturally attracted to making jewellery.
Julie Hoskin-Brandt feels fortunate to have discovered The Jewel and the Jeweller in New Plymouth, where workshops first introduced her to the art of jewellery-making. She went on to expand her skills through online courses, drawn to the wide range of techniques that make the craft both challenging and meditative.
Addicted to the process, Julie delights in every stage, from developing a design concept and working it into metal, to shaping, texturing, firing, and adorning with semi-precious gems. She finds joy in the flash of colour through a gemstone and the shimmering play of light on textured metal. Her ultimate aspiration is to create jewellery that is visually striking, rich in meaning, and capable of forming an emotional connection with the wearer.
