Joe offers a range of commissions, including portraits, celebrity portraits, wedding portraits and pet portraits. Please head to the Commissions page for more information.

Through commissions and collaborations, Joe has aligned his work with other key interests, like music, in creating cover art for albums by acclaimed musician Mylets, and film, in painting bespoke portraits for award-winning cinematographers.

Now living in Edinburgh, Joe enjoys engaging with local art groups and attending life-drawing sessions.

As a Literature graduate and practising screenwriter, Joe has always been passionate about characterisation. Where his first oil paintings depicted the landscapes of his native Lake District, he's always been drawn to the power and potential of the human form.

Joe is self-taught, and although his formal study stopped at A-Level, his route to becoming a freelance artist has been defined by media exploration and stylistic refinement, culminating in a 2019 solo show, Atlas, in Kendal. He also exhibited in a 2021 showcase for Around The House Productions, and is currently devising a second solo show. In 2025, he appeared on, and his piece Artemis was long-listed for the Jackson’s Art Prize (2025).
