British artist and woodcarver Joey Richardson grew up surrounded by trees on a small farm within the heart of Twigmoor Woods in Lincolnshire, England, where her love for wood, nature, fauna and flora developed. Wood-turning is one of our oldest and most traditional crafts, which Joey feels passionate to keep alive. She teaches and gives demonstrations of turning, piercing, painting and texturing in the UK and the USA, inspiring others. It is clear from the way in which Joey incorporates the concept of nature in her work that this is a strong influence for her, and she confirms that she indeed grew up surrounded by trees on a small farm within the heart of Twigmoor Woods in Lincolnshire, England.
