Trailing bougainvillea, birds of paradise, heliconia and Jurassic sized leaves such as elephant ear and breadfruit are also favourite subjects to work with and many of these have been developed as silkscreens, photopolymers and etchings. More recently Jo has further developed this imagery to produce her brightly coloured, Caribbean infused screen prints and woodcuts. The colour palettes reflect the vibrant colours she sees all around her from the street signage, the brightly painted houses, to the lush tropical flora. Her Sea Fan series of woodcuts are printed with an underlying commentary on climate change, as these were made after collecting sea fans washed up on the shores in the aftermath of devastating hurricanes. Jo studied for her BA at Edinburgh College of Art and her MA in Printmaking at Chelsea College of Art. She has exhibited extensively in the UK and Internationally and in recent years has been selected several times for The Summer Exhibition at the RA. Her work is held in numerous collections including Government buildings, The British Museum and in the V&A prints and drawings collection and has been featured in publications such as The Instant Printmaker, Etching and Photopolymer Techniques and Hybrid Prints, both published by A&C Black.
