Joe G Paintings

🌿 Nature is wonderful and mystical, but fleeting in this mechanical and digital age. So I paint to appreciate nature, and as a refuge from my high tech day job.🎨 My style is bold and painterly. I like the illusion of detail, je ne se qua, elements of the unknown, and leaving room for imagination.✨ I am particularly interested in the idea of mana or the energy that permeates nature. Sometimes, I can capture this in a painting. Other times, the painting is just a reminder.⛰️ My preferred method is painting en plein air and alla prima, fancy talk for painting outside and all at once. Magic the Gathering cards are also a big source of inspiration. And related to mana.✈️ I frequently travel between Montana, New England, the Carolinas, Canada, France, and Italy, given my remote job, and desire for fresh painting locations.🎬 I share my adventures on YouTube, art on Instagram, and painting tips in a newsletter.
