This painting depicts the kind of image that might be conjured up by the phrase 'red sky at night, shepherd's delight'. Jo Brown says that 'the titles of my paintings offer associations while allowing for personal interpretation'. She was born in Tunbridge Wells, Kent, and studied in Yorkshire, first at Bretton Hall College and later at Sheffield Hallam University.
