Jesa Marshall
After
completing a Foundation Diploma at Bournemouth & Poole College of
Art & Design Jesa gained an Honors Degree in History of Art and Design
at Winchester College of Art. Although she loved the world of art history
she was frustrated by the lack of hands on creativity and began to make
jewellery. She went on to study Precious Jewellery at Portsmouth University
and finally at the Sir John Cass dept. at London Guildhall University.
Jesa has been working as a professional jewellery designer for over 12
years and has been teaching and running Flux ’n’ Flame since
2003.
Jesa’s work can be seen in shops and galleries and shows throughout
the uk.
In 2009 she was awarded the Craft & Design Silver award for Jewellery
and has recently been selected to create a collection of jewellery for
the ‘Enchanted Palace’ exhibition at Kensington Palace.
Jesa combines precious metals with quality gem stones to create beautifully
organic Jewellery. Her love for dark fairytales and all things weird and
wonderful is manifested in her jewellery collections which incorporate
tiny sculptures of birds, animals, plants and objects into wearable stories.
Jesa works to commission as well as producing work for galleries &
exhibitions. She
is also a member of the British Jewellers Association (BJA) and the Association
of contemporary Jewellery ( ACJ ).

Al Marshall has a creative background in the motor industry and a keen passion for motorsport and custom cars. He has been designing, making and teaching jewellery for over 10 years alongside Jesa.
In 2010 Al launched his own Jewellery Brand called 'Ruby & Al' which is a wonderfully evocative range of designs with its heart lying in the 50’s passion for custom cars and hot rod racing!
He is highly skilled in metal forming / forging techniques and loves the challenge of creating three dimensional forms.
Alongside making Jewellery & teaching Al is revisiting his roots in building custom vehicles. With a love for motorcycles a 'Crow' inspired custom motorcycle is in the process of being built, to see some of the things he does when he's not making jewellery have a look at Al's other work.Al works to commission as well as producing work for galleries shops & exhibitions.

Heidi Dawson
After studying Design Technology and Art at A Level Heidi went to Bournemouth Arts Institute to complete a Foundation Diploma. Her love of creating beautiful three dimensional objects took hold so she specialised in 3D Design before heading to University.
Heidi successfully studied for a B.Ed Hons in Design and Technology and became a secondary school teacher. She has been teaching Resistant Materials and Graphics at Corfe-Hills School since 2006.
Heidi expanded her skills and knowledge even more and started making jewellery as a student at Flux 'n' Flame in 2009 and joined the team in 2011 to teach the ever popular one day courses.
"Jewellery making has now become a bit of an obsession and I'm really enjoying being able to combine my jewellery work with my teaching"
