Joe Hendry - United Kingdom
About the artist
Member since 2007-04-25
Joe Hendry began his professional life as an interior designer, having studied design in Glasgow for four years in the late eighties. Following a successful career in corporate interiors, Joe decided to concentrate on what he really loved and began painting full time in January 2005.
The graphic element of Joe’s design background shows through in much of his work.
Joe’s work was picked up early by a New York gallery curator and a buyer for Warner Brothers Studios in addition to being featured in the fifth anniversary Blondie Review.
As his first professional year progressed Joe was approached by several publishers. 2005 also saw a contract being signed with Caxton Press and an item of Joe’s work has appeared in the homage to Marilyn Monroe by Roger Taylor entitled Marilyn In Art released in 2006?.
Joe is also currently working with Mem Mehmet, compiler of 2004s internationally released Madonna In Art book, on another art book project for 2007 publication.
Joe has also exhibited regularly throughout the UK.
