From an early age, art has been a passion for Jose. He has never taken a formal art class, or studied art in school, but his love for art in all its different forms has motivated him to study and learn photography and oil painting. He usually takes his own reference pictures for his paintings, and each piece of art that he has completed has personal significance. He pushes himself with each new project to expand on his current skill set, and always strives to learn new techniques. His paintings have been featured in various art shows across the U.S.
