Joe is an interdisciplinary artist, specializing in abstraction. He uses mixed media to create his paintings.
Currently enrolled at Southern New Hampshire University, earning his BA in Graphic Arts and Art History. Joe has always had a passion for the Arts. In 2016, he attended Cuyahoga Valley Career Center and discovered his love for design. Since then he has been trying to pulled both, his passions for Graphic Arts and Abstract painting, together and tell his truths. He hopes that when viewing his work he can explain emotions through different color relationships and forms, and hopefully the viewer can relate to his work and the feeling he is attempting to explain and a conversation can be struck.
"A work of art which did not begin in emotion is not art." -Paul Cézanne
