Joe Barry Carroll Art
Paintings, Prints, and The Zamora CollectionHow It all Began
Joe Barry Carroll began painting several years ago in his home studio. Seventy of Joe’s acrylic and mixed materials paintings are featured in the memoir coffee table book Growing Up . . . In Words and Images. His paintings have also been exhibited at the Historic Arkansas Museum and Purdue University. In 2019 the Art Museum of Greater Lafayette will exhibit works from “Black American Voices,” and paintings by Carroll entitled, “My View From Seven Feet.”
“What flows from my pen and brush feels natural to me. I am never sure if the images create words, or the words move me to images. I am unable to tell precisely what determines my composition of colors, shapes and themes. Perhaps everything is forming at the same time, resulting in a complete story”
