About

About Jo Howell photographic artist from Sunderland
Artist Jo Howell with Phil Vickery glass blower.

I’m Jo Howell.

Light, time, and paper manipulator.

I’ve been a professional photographic artist since I left Uni in 2009. I am a cyanotype specialist. I use photography and art to work with other humans in beautiful chaos.

I work commercially to photograph 3D artworks like glass sculptures.

I create short films, animations, books, and whatever takes my fancy at any given time!

What do I do?

Photography Services

I offer commercial studio and location based photography for 3D artists. I have a brilliant studio, lighting, and plenty of creativity.

Cyanotype

I would probably say that this is one of my favourite methods of my practise because I can do it from home or in the yarden!

Project Development

Since 2009, I have used alternative photographic process and printmaking techniques to create amazing participation projects for communities.

I create original artwork all of the time. I make prints, photographic objects, films, installations, and so much more.
