GUY HOLLINGTON
White with Blue, Green, Amber Vase
Glass 13.5 x 9.5 x 3

This piece contrasts the busy mix of the blues, greens, ambers and bronze with the clean lines of the white base, and hints of transparent glass at the edge. – Guy Hollington

WILLIAM LIAO
Hustle & Flow
Acrylic on canvas 36 x 48
$5725
Seeing a city from a certain distance, shrinking it to a size that you can see at a glance, will appear gentle and solemn, especially at night. When people’s stories become blurred, the character of the city gradually emerges. Isn’t the flashing and changing of those lights the pulse and breath of the city? – William Liao
Be With Me
Oil on canvas 12 x 16
$845
In the warm sunshine, the world is quiet. Sometimes I think that what people need is neither happiness nor sadness, but peace. Do your own thing quietly every day, create your own value. – William Liao

NAOKO TAKENOUCHI
Earth, Sea and Air ‘Autumn Flight’
Glass 12 x 12 x 5
$1800
Naoko has worked as a glass artist since 1983, when she studied design and glassblowing at the Tama Art University, Tokyo. Subsequently, she studied glassblowing at the highly regarded New York Experimental Glass Workshop. In the 1990s, she was honored with scholarships to attend the world-renowned Pilchuck Glass School in Washington State.
Japanese Lanterns
Blown Glass 2 x 4
$75 per lantern
The piece is blown with a small air bubble in the centre, then covered with two layers of powdered, coloured glass. The stem is then added very carefully at the end of the hot process.
Once the piece is annealed for about 15 hours in a kiln, a clear vinyl tape is applied as a resist for certain areas. High pressure sandblasting is used to carve the glass surface to achieve the natural form and texture.

ANDREA ROBERTS
Citrine Ring
Sterling Silver, 18kt. Yellow Gold, Citrine (round, faceted) Size 8
$650
My aim is to create a story with each of my designs to spark a conversation that mirrors a personal experience, family story, memory or inspiration that lies embedded in my jewelry. I am intrigued by coloured, interesting gems placed in juxtaposition to a carefully chosen texture combined with a design application like foldforming that complete an original design. My inspirations often come from my travels, nature and art that have influenced me throughout a design finding process. – Andrea Roberts
Leaf Earrings
Sterling Silver and checkerboard-cut Peridots, 0.8 x 0.5 inches
$450
Spinner Ring
Sterling Silver, Keum-Boo, rectangle Peridot (8mm x 3 mm) Size 8
$640
Keum-Boo “attached gold” is an ancient jewelry technique originating in Korea, which is used to attach gold foil to sterling silver. The bonding of gold and silver are achieved through pressure and heat. During this fusion-bonding, atoms are exchanged leaving us with a collision of two metals as one, and one greater valued and aesthetically pleasing piece of adornment.
