Joe Francis Dowden

My signature name is Joe Francis Dowden. It is who I am as well as my brand. I paint beautiful river valleys, the landscapes and marine scenes of my lifetime and childhood, and many other things globally. I have worked in all mediums including traditional oil on linen. However the magnificent medium of watercolour, when used well, is the most superlative for colour, vibrancy, and light. My watercolour paintings are permanent, lighfast and will last indefinitely. I use the best quality, brightest, most colourful and most durable materials.
