This 1959 painting is currently on view in the COLORADO ABSTRACT EXPRESSIONISM exhibit at the Vance Kirkland
Museum of Fine and Decorative Arts in Denver, Colorado.
It is one of the museum's permanent collection.
During his artistic career, Joe Hutchinson has designed and fabricated
mosaic murals, sculptures, stained glass windows, and fountains for banks, schools, churches, and businesses. The Texas A&M Seal (shown on the left, and a gift of the TAMU Class of 1975) is a glass tile mosaic and is 14 feet in diameter. Each piece of tile was hand-laid in place by the artist and his assistants.
He has exhibited his paintings in more than 100 shows and has work in museums and many private and corporate collections in the U.S. and in Europe.
