“Your sculptures have an enduring quality. When I first saw your sculptures it was in a garden setting, and they took my breath away. The sensuous curves and the beautiful tactile stone looked so elegant and I loved the way I kept on wanting to look at them. It’s the curves and twists that really draw me to them, suggesting something more about emotions that are felt rather than seen. I knew these would be something that I’d never tire of and would enjoy for many years.”

Leila Godden, Contemporary Painter

“The two pieces have made our home a more beautiful place to live, thank you for putting your spirit into them.”

- Tony, Professional Guitarist

“…the serenity and simplicity of the form became a focus for meditation while listening to music and soon became part of our home.”

- Keith & Ann, Architects

“Every time I go upstairs I am uplifted of the joy of your ‘lovers’ it it is flowing, calm and almost transcendent, the curves meditative and magical.”

Timeless works in stone

Contemporary Hand Carved Stone Sculptures

"I feel so privileged to have one of your sculptures. She exudes personality and a sensual serenity. To me she is not just an ornament gathering dust, but a living breathing form. It is hard to walk past her without stopping and taking a breath or touching her to absorb her calm energy."

Jon, Retired Tree Surgeon

A transmission through form

Step into a world where the resilience and timeless beauty of stone meets contemporary artistry. Jo’s sculptures are celebrated for their flowing curves, sensual lines, and calm presence. Each piece is meticulously hand-carved, ensuring every client owns a truly unique creation - a work of art that carries both elegance and soul.

From her distinctive large-scale faces to more flowing and intimate forms, Jo’s sculptures invite a quiet pause: a moment of stillness and connection, where beauty is felt as much as it is seen. Whether placed in a garden, home, or contemplative space, her work offers more than sculpture - it is a conversation with stone, with nature, and with the deeper rhythms of life.
