Edward Fleming Painting Malachite Tutorial
Malachite Tutorial - how to Paint them by Edward Fleming Edward Fleming is jewelry maker in London who creates custom bespoke jewellry designs. Often Edward uses hand drawn and painted images to bring visions of jewelry to life. If the customer has something special in mind, custom computer 3-D mockups are sometimes used to satisfy exactly what the client has envisioned.
I was taken aback by his website which demonstrates how to actually paint malachites. This is great for the beginner or the seasoned painter, who wants to create lovely artwork that jumps off the page. Additionally it will give a new appreciation to these gemstones which are stunning in appearance.
It's hard to tell which are real, this Tutorial is amazing!

Edward's jewelry designs also make sure to use ethical practices in obtaining both stones and the making supplies. His website explains how he takes steps to ensure the highest ethics in jewelry making.
Creations? They are many and range in pricing. Some high end creations such as this fluorescent diamond pendant is essentially a hidden initial pendant. Fluorescent diamonds have a story, and are not often used by makers here in the states.
