Art Appreciation
Joe Bowler is a self taught illustrator and impressionist artist from New York. His first works were published in Cosmopolitan, Collier's and The Saturday Evening Post, and he was named Artist of the Year in 1967 by the Artists' guild of New York.
I came across Bowler's work while surfing impressionist art. The first painting that caught my eye was Morning Wade, which is of a nude woman enjoying the waves. It's as if Bowler wanted to share with the viewer a memory he had experienced. It's absolutely beautiful.
Then I came across more of his other amazing work. Other paintings caught my eye. For example, Whistlers Daughter, a painting of a young ballerina sitting on a chair as if waiting to be called. The detail is amazing. Then there is one of a young mother and her baby enjoying the beach, titled A Keeper.
You can see more of his work HERE.
