Jo Wood

I am a bead artist inspired by nature, my sanctuary. I sew tiny glass beads on felted wool textiles to “paint” my impressions of nature’s ever-changing pattern. Living and working in Northern Minnesota for over 20 years has given me time to know shorelines, forest trails, and gardens where flowers gesture, trees reach, and water moves. Through my art, I share this connection to nature, the abundance, peace, and beauty of this place.
