Joe Conner Designs

I love art! I love looking at art! I love creating it and sharing it! If I could remember the day of my birth in Cambridgeshire, England, I'm sure I would say that I loved art since I was born. By the time I was sixteen, my father and my grandmother, artist Lucy Day, were encouraging me to study art as a career.

So, in 1985, I enrolled in a 2 year General Art & Design course at Isle College, Cambridgeshire, where I studied fine art, graphic design, textiles, print making, pottery, photography, metal work, etc. After earning my diploma, it began to dawn on me that loving art in all its various forms was not going to feed me and pay my bills.
