Floral to Comos, Joe Reno Paintings

Joe Reno's paintings involve the search for new form, color, design, composition, and spirit. This fall exhibition will reveal Joe's new unusual concepts. He is a prolific and dynamic painter, and more so in his 8th decade. 

From Seattle, as a young man he studied with Will Barnett and Edwin Dickinson at the Art Student’s League in New York City where he was also employed at the Museum of Modern Art. There, he intensely observed the collection of master's works. In the 1960s he was stationed in Germany with the United States military and after went on to study art. He has exhibited throughout the nation, and was friends with the Northwest Mystic painters. 

He has been published in thirty nine art reviews / publications / books. His work is exceedingly collectible. Meloy Gallery is the only gallery that offers new works directly benefiting Joe's livelihood. Meet Joe at the October 3, First Friday Bellingham Art Walk, 5:00-9:00pm.

        We acknowledge that Whatcom County is located on the unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples. They cared for the lands that included what we’d call the Puget Sound region, Vancouver Island and British Columbia since time immemorial. This gives us the great obligation and opportunity to learn how to care for our surrounding areas and all the natural and human resources we require to live. We express our deepest respect and gratitude for our indigenous neighbors, the Lummi Nation and Nooksack Tribe, for their enduring care and protection of our shared lands and waterways.
