Joe's work is so textural it invites you to touch. Using mixed media such as sand, gold, and other materials together with acrylics Joe creates symbolic abstracts as well as representational work. His color pallet is intense and exciting as he describes in paint the prehistory of his people in New Mexico and Arizona. |
