What a joy it is to find a painter who has a natural response to paint and colour. Jo's exuberant paintings are full of light and extravagant gesture. The ease with which she indicates a fluid line and its centre with an explosion of colour appeals to the senses and is wonderfully transporting.

Jo does not copy but responds to the feel of colour and form which to her means exuberance and splendour. This requires a great personal flair that cannot be taught. It is a remarkable gift.

Jo Vollers paints in her East Devon studio, near the sea. She is inspired by the landscape around her and the changing seasons in her garden. Very often painting favourite objects too. Mixing an exciting palette of colours and tones is her starting point to create harmony and then translating what she sees onto canvas without any preconceived ideas of what might emerge.

Many artist inspire her work such as Ivon Hitchens, Morandi and Joan Eardley.
