Artwork for Jo Verity
Details
How would you describe the work you do and why?
My work is inspired by nature and the natural world. My favourite mediums to work with are skulls and bones, I find their forms inspiring and feel an empath with the departed. I love to breath new life into them with vintage images of flora and fauna reflecting their habitat, recycling and reincarnating them.
