Joseph has been painting for about 30 years.
Initially self taught using instruction books, he later attended art
workshops and classes with a number of different teachers and studied for
four years at the Beverly Street Studio School with Ron Boehmer, Frank
Hobbs and Robert Stuart. Finished works number over 800 paintings plus
numerous etchings and photographs, purchased by collectors here and
abroad. He has won a number of awards at area
shows.
He paints in both oil and watercolor mediums, using an impressionistic painting style, and dividing his time between painting outdoors, en plein air, and in the studio using photographs and sketches. He has a BS degree in Textile Chemistry from Georgia Tech. Training and experience in color science has been very helpful in his art career. His works are exhibited in Virginia at Artists in Cahoots Gallery, Lexington; Co-Art Gallery, Staunton; Allegheny High- lands Arts & Crafts Center, Clifton Forge. Recent awards: 2nd in Oils, Waynesboro Fall Festival; 1st in Graphics and in Oils, Rockbridge Fair Art Show. Other interests include gardening and singing and playing brass instruments in local groups. He enjoys traveling and in recent years has painted on location in Italy, Quebec, Idaho, Utah, California and England. However, his favorite painting location is in the mountains and valleys of Virginia. Commissions accepted: Most of the pictures shown here have been sold.
