Hello everyone,

I hope you're all doing well and enjoying the cooler weather!

This October my schedule is jam packed with exciting happenings!

First up, I'm running some art workshops for Collaborative Arts CIC in South East London this October, with fellow artist and CARTS Director Sarah Sparkes: 

Halloween lantern making on 26th and 30th, and collage on October 24th. You can find out more and book through Eventbrite by going here, here and here:

The collage workshop is linked to my exhibition Home Time. I'm collaborating with artist Rhian Sutcliffe in response to the intimate and homely surroundings of The Bonnington Community Arts Cafe, to explore notions of the transient nature of memory, nostalgia and a yearning for home. We'll be bringing together paintings, collage and new 3D pieces. 

If you can't make the workshop I'd love for you to join us at the private view on Monday October 19th, from 5 - 9pm. Please RSVP on Eventbrite here - it's free to attend, but booking lets us know who to expect! 

I'm also very happy that my work was accepted for Imagined Worlds at Catford Library.

There will be a relaxed opening celebration for the exhibition on Friday 6 November, from 5.30pm to 6.30pm, and I'd love for you to join us

There are lots of events linked to the exhibition, including free film screenings at Deptford Lounge. To find out more please go here and here

Last but not least, my Tuesday morning online course Exploring Creativity will start up again for 10 weeks from October 20th. To find out more and book your place please email me, or go to Eventbrite here

I very much look forward to seeing you sometime, somewhere soon!

With love and best wishes - Jo

 Hello everyone!

I'm very pleased to have been invited to exhibit my work at the Safe House 2 gallery in Peckham, for "Dream On" - a football themed art exhibition. The show is curated by VJ, and lasts for a week. It opened yesterday, July 12th, and runs until July 17th. Opening hours are 11am - 6pm daily.

I'll be there this coming Thursday, July 16th, so if you want to have a chat about my mini installation "In the Fridge" please do pop by! I plan to be there from 11am - 1pm. This work is very different and explores the other side of football. I hope to see you!

Thanks to Alice Renouf for the photos

 Hi again everyone!

My Tuesday morning online course Exploring Creativity starts again on June 30th. I'm attaching the timetable and I've put it up on Eventbrite with all the information and different tiers for booking. As usual you can attend as many or as few sessions as you like, and please feel free to email me if you have any questions at all. You can visit the listing on Eventbrite here

For my regulars, please feel free to pay in the usual way!

I'm also offering a new service. Having thoroughly enjoyed my recent courses with the College of Psychic Studies, and after my successful live art interaction as The Camberwell Oracle for Camberwell Arts Festival, I'm delighted to offer online and in person Tarot readings 

Each session lasts for 45 minutes, and you'll be given two 3 card readings - Past Present Future and Yes/No answer, with a follow up email detailing what was revealed, including a photograph of each of the card spreads

I use the Marseille Tarot deck which was invented in Northern Italy in the 15th Century, it's one of the oldest Tarot decks available 

So, if you'd like to delve into the spiritual realm with me, find out what the future may hold, or you need an answer to your question for the Universe, please go here to book an online session, taking place via Zoom, at £55

For an in person session, taking place at Art Hub Studios CIC on Stanley Street SE8 4BL, costing £65, please go here

I'm also very excited to be taking part in the Untitled Art Fair. It's at Chelsea Old Town Hall on Friday 24th, Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th of July.
