We are SO LUCKY to be able to access more of Joe Average’s work on his new site! Check it out! It’s like drinking a cool glass of clear, clean, beautiful water.
Joe Average (born 1957) is a Canadian artist who resides in Vancouver, British Columbia. Diagnosed HIV+ at age 27, Average made the decision to commit the rest of his life to art, and to challenge himself to live by his art.
I finally got to meet with Joe Average on August 3, 2012, and I was so moved! He is one of my biggest inspirations… Meeting your hero is a spiritual experience. To discuss art together… not enough words can explain the delight and elation I felt!
Thank you, Joe, for allowing me to draw you! And for being so generous with your time and inviting me onto you paradise porch!

Reblogged this on Nancy Dinell-Bead Charmer Girl and commented:
Joe Average’s Art is anything but “average”. His use of primary colors and thick black lines always make me smile. His art is inspiring on so many levels. Enjoy it often.
Be a Blessing,
