Joe Lowery opened the Simpsonville Fine Art Gallery in Simpsonville, SC in October 2024. His journey into painting began in 2017 when he took a colored pencil drawing class in Greer with his granddaughter. ” Encouragement is something Joe hopes to emphasize the most with his gallery. “Before I got into painting, I had no idea what the art community was like. It’s wonderful to be a part of it, and this gallery makes me even more connected,” he explained. “I want the area to have a space for artists to display their work. It’s a place for everyone to enjoy.”
