Our Teachers

Amanda Whitworth has a background in colour and design, creating looks and moods for a range of commercial and residential properties before moving into the world of jewellery design.

She has spent the last six years designing and selling her own range of handcrafted jewellery, and has a particular passion for wire work. Amanda has created exclusive ranges for leading Australian fashion brands, individually designed to complement each season’s new collection. She loves the way a single piece of wire can be moulded and manipulated in so many expressive ways.

Her courses will teach you how to use wrapping, coiling, weaving and other techniques to create spectacular pieces. Amanda will show you how to bring unique personal expression to your work, with a focus on both the design skills to create beautiful forms and the craft skills to bring them to life.
