With over 15 years of art making experience, Jo Richards Hooker is an established New Zealand Artist based in the Waikato with a love of colour and form.   Her work is organic and stylised where form and shadow are pivotal in her sculptural work and a more vibrant colour palette is emerging in her paintings. Themes of movement such as birds and boats are threaded throughout her work as well as shapes inspired by organic forms particularly leaves, water, trees and landscapes. Occasionally objects of function also come to life in the studio such as crescents and keys. Jo has a growing client base of collectors and supporters. You can find more of her work at some beautiful New Zealand galleries including Inspirity Gallery, Kanuka Design Gallery, Kina Art Space, Soul Gallery, The Artist's Room, The Little Gallery of Fine Arts, The Vault, The Sculpture Park at Waitakaruru Arboretum in the North Island, and Hokitika Craft Gallery in the South Island.
