Hi, I’m Jo Bund, a mixed media artist and graphic designer. I live by the Thames Estuary on the South East coast of the UK, where I have my home art studio to work from.
Creativity has always been a huge part of my life. I was always drawing at school and knew from an early age that I wanted to pursue something creative. I went on to do an Art Foundation course, then studied Printed Textile Design at the University of East London, followed by an MA in Digital Media & Cultural Studies. I’ve been a Graphic Designer for over 20 years and, since 2010, I’ve been running my own design business, Equilibrium Creative, with my husband.
In 2015, I decided to get back to my roots and reconnect with my passion for art. I joined a Creative Journal course and, from there, I’ve been hooked on working in sketchbooks and altered books.
In 2017, I co-founded a sketchbook collective called SEVEN with a group of local artists. We meet up regularly to collaborate on projects, exhibit locally (like the Leigh Art Trail), and run creative workshops.
