Graphic and colourful handmade jewellery and limited edition artworks created by me, Steph Sheahan, in my cottage studio in the west of Ireland.
Punch and Fable was created to inspire a more colourful, lively and creative way of life. I tell stories of my life experiences and inspiration through intuitively chosen colour combinations, illustration and graphic symbolism. Colour is hugely important in my work.
I find inspiration everywhere: through memories, travel, nature, the body, food, motherhood...
I like to make tangible things from my ideas and experiences. My work crosses many disciplines; a poem I write may inspire a painting, and this in turn may inspire a pair of handmade earrings.

An Interview Series
In 2021 and 2022 I embarked on a project of interviewing fellow creatives here in Ireland, and asking them about their experiences of life and their creative process.
