I'm David Howlett and I've lived in the English county of Essex all my life. It’s a great place to live - we have a temperate climate, great coastline, lovely villages, bustling towns and beautiful countryside.

Jodarose.com celebrates this part of the world and covers the work I do with a brush, trowel, pen or keyboard! I consider myself very fortunate to be able to work in areas that allow me to be creative.

The links to my three other websites are above.

I hope you enjoy exploring as there is plenty to see!
