Welcome 😃 I'm Jo Garden. I call myself a 'facilitator' as my joy is enabling people of any skill to achieve something they did not expect, plus have time away from the everyday stresses of normal life. My sculpture & slate mosaic workshops are broken down into small stages which result in amazing sculptures and works of art regardless of your artistic ability (honestly). If you purchase a kit, there is a full length video of me making the sculpture which you can watch as many times as you wish. If attending a workshop, my peaceful studio is tucked into the garden surrounded by trees and wildlife making it a very tranquil and stress busting. I run several workshops a month but am often booked up for months in advance. If you book a long way in the future, I do make contact if I have cancellations and can move you forward. Please do not hesitate to message me if you have any questions. Jo x

Pip Hughes reviewed: Sculpture workshop two days with Jo Garden Art in beautiful rural Norfolk/Suffolk border setting

"Thanks Jo and Andy I loved the 2 day workshop. We had so much fun and I came home with my abstract horse which I am very pleased with. This is the third workshop I have been on and have had such a great time at every one. You get just as much help as you want or need so I have more booked. The atmosphere is so good and refreshing. "

Jo Garden Art responded:

"Thank you Pip - looking forward to seeing you again this year! Your horse was wonderful, with a slightly tilted head which added so much personality. I would have been very happy to give him space in my garden (but I doubt you would part with him!). Enjoy the changing colours you see on the copper patinated finish after rain and sun 🤗😘 Jo xx"

Steph Birkhead reviewed: Sculpture workshop two days with Jo Garden Art in beautiful rural Norfolk/Suffolk border setting

"Fabulous two days with Jo making Maud a sitting hare, days filled with inspiration and laughter. Anyone thinking they cannot make a sculpture or slate art, think again, with Jo you can and thoroughly enjoy the experience. Looking forward to making a friend for Maud ! "

Jo Garden Art responded:

"Thank you so much Steph! I expect Maud will also be a little fed up with all the rain we are having (if you were brave enough to pop her outside!). Once she has a buddy, they can enjoy the British weather together 😄🤗. Jo xx"

Carol Parker reviewed: Sculpture workshop two days with Jo Garden Art in beautiful rural Norfolk/Suffolk border setting

"This workshop was utterly amazing and I enjoyed every single second. Jo is a wonderful tutor, everything was organised and explained, with ample space to work. Jo's studio is a beautiful inspiration too. Being an absolute beginner to sculpting, I was thrilled with the piece I created by the end of the two days under Jo's excellent and patient tuition. I highly recommend Jo's workshop and if you are new to sculpture then don't be nervous, Jo will talk you through it and you'll have a wonderful time."

Jo Garden Art responded:

"Thank you so much Carol 😘 I loved your fabulous abstract dog finished in patina copper (the first one finished in that metal paint - and I'm sure not the last!). I'm so lucky to have my modern workshop - the best 60th birthday present ever! Jo xx"

Sandra Fernando reviewed: Sculpture workshop two days with Jo Garden Art in beautiful rural Norfolk/Suffolk border setting

"Finished the two day course today and I am blown away by the sculpture I have created thanks to Jo. The setting is beautiful and idyllic. Jo and Andy were incredible hosts, really welcoming, supportive and good fun. The care and attention to detail is evident in every aspect of how the course is built and the supplied materials were carefully selected and of a very high standard. Jo is passionate in ensuring you learn to create something that is truly beautiful and reflective of your own voice. Her ability to spot a tiny tweak that would transform the piece was truly remarkable and handled very sensitively - recognising when you were not completely happy with what you have done. My fellow students were lovely and the relaxed atmosphere meant we had a shared bond throughout the workshop and many laughs. I thoroughly recommend this course and hope you find Jo as inspirational as I have! "

Jo Garden Art responded:

"What a wonderful review Sandra, thank you so much. Your wonderful cat will be much admired! And those long, long copper whiskers were fabulous 😃. Well done. Jo xx"

Wenda reviewed: Sculpture workshop two days with Jo Garden Art in beautiful rural Norfolk/Suffolk border setting

"Second course for me and with Jo's unending enthusiasm, advice and encouragement. I made the most beautiful cat sculpture, who will be gracing the garden from Spring. It takes a lot to ensure that everyone on these courses is given the attention and help they need but Jo and Andy are without doubt the dynamic duo and we all left with completed works of art, every question answered and armed with contacts to continue making things. I can't put into words the fun we all had even though we were all focussing on our work. Just counting the months until I can come again!"

Jo Garden Art responded:

"Thank you so much Wenda for this lovely review. Andy's armature making welding skills are invaluable for these two day workshops. It's lovely having a small class to be able to focus on each individual sculpture - and I must admit to needing a deep bath and (very) large glass of wine to celebrate at the end of the second day! I'll see you again I'm sure! Jo xx"

Brenda reviewed: Sculpture workshop two days with Jo Garden Art in beautiful rural Norfolk/Suffolk border setting

"This was amazing. I am so pleased I waited to do the course, I learned so much and created such a great sculpture in just a weekend, all thanks to the uber talented Jo Garden Art, ably assisted by Andy. Jo's comprehensive understanding of the alchemy of paints and textures really added to the weekend along with her experimental style. Loved it. Looking forward to going back."

Jo Garden Art responded:

"Thank you Brenda - your leaping dog sculpture was fabulous and I cannot wait to hear how the blackened iron metal finish develops over the next few weeks once he is outside. I just love the alchemy of it all! Looking forward to seeing you in the studio again, Jo xx"

Denise Mayell reviewed: Small Outdoor Plaster Hare Sculpture Kit (30cm) with full video instructions by Jo Garden Art

"Wow, such a wonderful little project to complete. The kit was perfectly labelled with a great YouTube video to follow at your leisure. I did my hare over the course of a couple of weeks. A sitting for each stage. Jo's explanation of the process was easy to follow and felt like you were in the room with her. As for 'Mr Hare' well he is just fantastic! I might wait for the weather to warm up before I put him outside, or knit him a jumper. He looks very majestic on my mantlepiece for the time being. I purchased as a gift for myself. I will be adding to my collection for sure. I might even sign up for an in house course and make a weekend of it some day soon. "

Jo Garden Art responded:

"Thank you so much for this wonderful review Denise! Love the idea of Mr Hare in a knitted jumper 😄😄😄. I hope to see you in my studio at some time, Jo xx"

Richard Hutchinson reviewed: Bronze Hare Kit using air-drying clay - including on-line video with Jo Garden Art

"I loved making the clay hare! The pack was very well put together with clear instructions about what to do. The online video was very helpful. The whole process was throughly enjoyable and I learned a lot. I thought the bronze gilt effect at the end was a great touch and really made the piece. I can say I have been bitten by the clay sculpture bug and have now started on another piece myself "

Jo Garden Art responded:

"Thank you so much for taking the time to post this review Richard. The bronze gilt is a wonderful product - I use it in most of my kits plus at the workshops. A little goes a very long way! Enjoy your continued sculpture work. If you would like information on the materials used, send me a message via Craft Courses. Jo x"

Gemma Gallen reviewed: Large Outdoor Plaster Hare sculpture kit

"I purchased a large and small hare craft kit to make at home. It was honestly one of the best things I have ever bought. I have loved making my hare! The video is so easy to follow and everything supplied for you! Down to the sponges and paint brushes. Had more than everything I needed and the most amazing time making something I will hopefully keep forever. Jo has been brilliant and helpful and even went the extra mile to video call to advise me of a bit I was struggling with. Cannot recommend enough! What an amazing present this course could be for someone. Thank you so so much I love my gorgeous hares "

Jo Garden Art responded:

"Thank you Gemma! It was lovely to see your hares on the video call - they were fabulous - well done 😊👏."

Jo Fisher reviewed: Duo human sculpture kit (1 x 30cm & 1 x 50cm)

"Really enjoyed making the small and large human . Jo has thought of everything and all you need is provided, she even includes a cloth, paint brush , clay tools and sponges ! The written instructions are very clear and the video is great to watch as you work your way through . Delighted with the results. Thanks Jo , excellent kit."

Jo Garden Art responded:

"Thank you Jo. I developed my range of kits during lockdown (which seems an eternity ago) and it still seems strange knowing people are watching me on the videos! Thank you for noting I include everything needed to make the sculptures - part of the enjoyment developing the kits was coming up with the 'complete' package. So happy you are delighted with your human sculptures. Jo xx"
