Hi I am a self taught willow artist and live in Somerset, surrounded by willow! I make all sorts of commission pieces and you can see my work at The Swannery, Abbotsbury . I run willow sculpture workshops at Studi0ne,Bridport,River Cottage & Symondsbury Estate,The David Hall,South Petherton, Flowerdew Farm, and Musgroves Willow located in Dorset, Devon and Somerset. From hares to deer, pigs, bees, dragonfly and flying owls, Christmas wreaths, to name a few! I can also come to you if you can get 8 people together-local village hall.....

IanL reviewed: Willow chicken Sculpture at Walford Mill Wimbourne

"Another terrific day willow sculpting at Walford Mill. Jo is a fantastic and engaging tutor, and made the day all the more enjoyable. Although a pig sculpting day, is arranged to sculpt a second unicorn for my granddaughters, to join the first in their garden from a previous deer/unicorn sculpting class. This class enabled me to explore some new ideas, and to learn and practice more willow working under Jo's lovely guidance."

"Had a great day. The teacher was very good at guiding and helping us as individuals. Instructions were clear and given in manageable pieces. The materials were good and more than sufficient for our needs as a group. The finished product , a willow deer, looks amazing."

Frances Saunders reviewed: Willow Deer at The David Hall with Jo Sadler

"A really enjoyable and creative day that ended up with a sculpture to take home that far exceeded my expectations. Jo is an excellent teacher with an engaging style that kept us all motivated, especially when we were got tired from concentrating. Her knowledge of the craft and choice of materials was inspirational. The time flew by! I would recommend a session with Jo to anyone, regardless of their artistic abilities. You could surprise yourself for what you can achieve in 9 hours!"
