About Joe G
🌿 Nature is wonderful and mystical, but fleeting in our mechanical and digital age. So I paint to remind us all of nature, and as a refuge from my high technology day job.
🎨 I emulate the old masters, using oil paints and bristly brushes. I prefer natural and traditional pigments over the modern organics.
✨ My style is impressionistic and painterly. I like capturing landscapes en plein air (painting outside). Magic the Gathering mana cards are also a big source of inspiration.
🙌 My influences are my father Steve Guerra, Carla Bosch, Turner Vinson, Antonin Passemard, Ulrich Gleiter, Stuart Davies, Malcolm Dewey, and Hester Berry.
