Watercolour Landscape Painting By Joe Francis Dowden

Joe Francis Dowden is a professional, British watercolour artists specialising in painting landscapes and seascapes in watercolour. Joe was born in London. He gave up his building-site labouring job at the age of twenty-three to become a professional watercolour painter and part-time window cleaner.

His works are in collections in the USA, Australia and the Far East. When not painting and cleaning windows, Joe enjoys restoring classic motorcycles and working as a volunteer on steam railways.
