Irreverent donkey art from Madrid, NM
About the Artist Jackass
I’m Joe. I paint donkeys. Big ones, small ones, sassy ones, ones that look like they just overheard something juicy.
They show up in my head uninvited — mid-coffee, mid-sentence, mid-life crisis — and I do my best to pin them down with thick paint and questionable decisions. Sometimes they end up on canvas. Sometimes on denim. Occasionally a horseshoe or a hat.
I don’t make high art. I make eye-contact-from-across-the-parking-lot art.
If it makes you laugh, feel something, or slightly tilt your head — we’re on the right track.
