Jo Stevens

Jo has been painting abstracted scenes and memories since being a student, trying to capture and understand the link between emotional and visual language. She uses mixed media, expressively layering to try convey magical images from childhood that although recognisable still leave open interpretation by the viewer. She says ‘I love the idea that art can be cathartic and healing for both the artist and it’s audience’

Jo lives in Essex and works as an art teacher, she is currently also training in art therapy.
