Jo Grundy

Jo Grundy was born and brought up on a farm in West Berkshire which gave her a love of nature and the English landscape. She worked in graphics for around 14 years which influenced her use of color and composition.

She initially created home-made greetings cards. To begin with all her paintings were in mixed media, and she used everything from paint and paper to stitching and beads to create highly textured and ornate pieces. She explored her style and now works with mainly acrylics, specifically using brand of paint called Jo Sonja by Chroma which is a decorative paint system designed for use on a variety of surfaces including wood and glass but also works extremely well on paper and canvas. She loves to work from her imagination and let her paintings evolve, using a variety of mark making equipment to add form and texture to landscapes.

Her main inspiration comes from the ever changing seasons of the English landscape with her favorite season being winter, as she loves to see the structure and detail of trees and hedgerows.
