Garcia always keeps a camera on hand to photograph references for his paintings and has captured images from Tuscany, Italy, to Timaru, New Zealand, Joe Garcia lives in Julian, California, where the oaks and pines support an abundance of wildlife, a good place for an artist, with a specialty in painting creatures and habitat.

The paintings I show are an impression or portrayal of the subjects that I see.  I use composition, value and color to capture a rendition of the subjects.  I try to evoke an emotional response from the viewer.  I want them to believe that I enjoy what I paint!
