About the Artist:

Pastel Painting Class at Huntsville Art Supplies

Timothy Michael Joe is a self taught artist and instructor from the rural southern town of Greensboro, Alabama. He creates art based on themes associated southern rural culture concerning God, family, and heritage. He enjoys using his art to educate, uplift, and encourage. He teaches nature journaling in gouache and landscape art in soft pastels online and in person. His favorite subjects are rural structures in landscapes and nature journaling. I love learning the history of my subject and gain the appreciation that helps me create meaningful art. Creating a beautiful painting is nice, but painting the same scene with an understanding of the history is what I am after. I believe the backstory of my subject is just as important as the color I choose to paint.
