Hello my name is Jo.

It was while I was working in Medical Physics for the NHS in London that I attended my first watercolour evening class. A couple of years later, I was lucky enough to be awarded a Highly Commended by renowned watercolour artist Alwyn Crawshaw for my ink and watercolour painting of 'Mersea Boats'. A proud and encouraging moment.

I continued to paint as a hobby, but it was later when we spent a few years in Dusseldorf, Germany, and after encouragement from a friend there, that I took the leap and began to sell prints of the wonderful beer gardens, café’s and historical buildings, and become a 'professional Artist'.

I now live with my Husband and 2 sons in the small but vibrant and beautiful village of Overton, Hampshire, UK. My prints are stocked in Germany and the UK, and are bought internationally. I am thrilled that my commissioned paintings and prints are hanging on walls across the world.

My paintings have been selected for the National Trust's 'Mottisfont' Open Art Exhibition twice, and featured in Liberty of London's The Liberty Book.
