Developed an interest in art early on in Joseph Fischers life, helped him understand the importance of expression. While studying all the methods and mediums an artist can do, painting was the one that grabbed at his heels and wouldn't let go. Inspired by artists such as Dekooning, Richard Diebenkorn, Elizabeth Murray, Lucian Freud, Gustave Klimpt, and Egen Shielle. The free, liberating and complicated method art holds is what Joe loves about his way of expressing his artistic madness.

He takes on certain social and personal issues that he feels need to be expressed. Coming to terms with life around him, "Observation is one key to understanding life and without it, you will never experience the world around". Through his eyes and brush, those issues take a meaning.
