Jewel established the grass roots urban arts project, ‘Acton Unframed’ with her husband, Kal Di Paola and several street artists in 2019, raising £54K through crowd funding, with strong support from the local community and contributions from local businesses, Acton BID, Ealing Council, the Acton Central Ward Forum and The Mayor of London. Unable to find work in her specialist field, she turned her hand to screen printing and through that she began to meet street artists wanting to make the transition to creating artwork they could sell. She came to London to be with her husband James in 2008, just as the recession hit. She is herself a motion graphics and visual effects artist who has worked in LA and Las Vegas.

Jewel is responsible for the mural opposite the gallery, ‘Shisöka’ by Fin DAC, on the corner of Mrytle Rd and Churchfield Rd, and also for the Jamal Edwards portrait by Matt Small at Everyone Active on Acton High Street, and ‘Relativity’ by Remi Rough on Goldsmith Avenue.
