Describing himself as a “landscape painter and a painter of the things that hang around the landscape,” Joe Andoe is renowned for his starkly painted portrayals of flowers, cloudy skies, and animals like dogs and horses. Andoe first covers the canvas with thick black oil paint, then wipes off its wet surface with his hands or paper towels to reveal the image underneath. This artistic process results in a mysterious and textural minimalism in his landscape paintings that depict the American spirit.
