Joe Wilcox's Art & Bio
Originally from Michigan, Joe Wilcox is a self-taught artist, residing in Hot Springs Village with his wife Stacey. Joe is a diabetic, kidney transplant survivor, as well as being a double leg amputee. While battling these health issues, he started painting as a kind of therapy and in doing so discovered his passion for art. He specializes in vivid landscapes, utilizing a wet-on-wet oil painting technique, in which you do the entire painting while it’s wet. He’s created a distinctive, recognizable style all his own, drawing from his life in Arkansas and memories of Michigan. In Hot Springs you can view Joe’s paintings at The Artist’s Workshop Gallery and The Hotel Hot Springs. His work can also be seen in The Desoto Club and Waypoint Café and Marina in Hot Springs Village.
