Jo is an artist painting with oils.
Returning to study Interior Decoration as an adult reconnected Jo with her love of a regular art practice, and now she paints as her full time passion.
Jo lives in a small coastal township on the Great Ocean Road in regional Victoria, where the beautiful natural environment informs much of her landscape work, but as a keen gardener, Jo also has a love of still life that documents her home grown flowers, fruit, and carefully collected household items.
Jo has exhibited in many group shows since 2021, and has been selected as a finalist in a number of national art prizes, including Inside This Box, The Regional Landscape Prize, and The Every Day hosted by The Corner Store Gallery, as well as the Mornington Peninsula Contemporary Art Prize, the Lethbridge 20000, and the Waverley Woollhara 9 x 5 Landscape Prize.
In 2024 Jo was invited to be one of 7 artists to exhibit in the Inverell Contemporary at the Inverell Art Gallery.
She held her first solo exhibition with The Corner Store Gallery in September 2024.
Her work is held in many private collections.
