Jo Earl has been painting with oils since 2004, earning a Fine Art degree from Bucks New University.

Having experimented with numerous subjects, Earl fell in love with landscapes and seascapes mainly due to their magnificent skies: their colours, unpredictability, and vastness. When she is painting, Earl becomes so enthralled in her compositions that it is an excellent way for her to self-reflect and release stress.

Oil paints take longer to dry but are ideal for building up layers. The complexity of landscapes and seascapes lends themselves perfectly to oil paints, allowing Earl to bring the subject’s depth, complexity and emotion.
