Joe Hush's photostream

I am a Northumbrian artist, I was born in Rothbury, England in 1951, I was raised in Alnwick and now live in Washington, County Durham. with my wife and son.
I am primarily a landscape artist and the countryside of Northern England has certainly inspired me. As a family, we regularly go for country walks especially into woodland, which attracts me like a magnet.
I work in acrylic, oils and watercolour and I try to capture and convey my feelings of a particular subject, I still remain mesmerised, seeing a scene materialise onto paper.
I am a self-taught artist and after 16 years of painting professionally, I am proud my paintings are now in many Art Galleries throughout the UK.
I now teach others, tutoring art classes throughout the year for the W.E.A. (Workers Educational Association) I also do demonstrations and workshops for art groups/societies.
