with joy and beauty 〰️

Welcome!

I’m Jo, a watercolour artist creating fine art, illustrations and surface designs - sometimes with a brush, sometimes with an iPad, always with a love of nature! My work is full of flowers, birds and those quiet reminders that beauty matters.

I dreamed of being an artist growing up, but like many childhood dreams, mine got tucked away. Years later, spending time in nature, sketching and painting with my kids, the spark came slowly back to life. Now I’m painting all the things I love and hoping they bring a little joy your way too.

I’m so glad you found your way here!

Every flower was lovingly hand-painted by me in Procreate watercolour.

Follow me on Instagram @jodaisyart to see my work in progress and what inspires me daily.

I had a few doodles from lesson plans for the Procreate Classes I’m teaching. Created this pattern. I know Photoshop is best for repeat patterns. But sometimes girls just wanna have fun!
Loved the combination of amethyst genuine, green gold and olive green to paint this little guy. I think I’m happy, but I may feel differently tomorrow 😆 Now for the teapot. A bit out of my comfort zone painting ceramics. Let’s hope I don
Another one of my favourite subjects: birds. This little robin was too sweet to resist. A Procreate watercolour creation.
This teapot with roses has been one of my favourites so far. My collection is growing. If only it was this easy yo collect the real thing. And where to put them? But wouldn’t it be lovely to own so many?

I fell in love… painting flowers felt like play.
