Joey went to Art School in Boston, MA in the 1980s, and began creating band flyers and rock and roll posters for Boston alt rock circles, and by the 1990s had distribution deals with Aerosmith and the Grateful Dead. Living in Worcester in the 90’s he was president and member of the Worcester Artist Group bringing live music and Artist events to Central Massachusetts.

Joey is well known for his eye-catching iconic murals that adorn the outside of Shop Therapy on Commercial St. in Provincetown.
Moving to Cape Cod in the late 90’s Joey began showcasing his art in local galleries throughout the Cape and the Northeast. He collaborated with local P-town artists forming the Hell Town Gallery which was influential in showcasing local artists and helped launch successful careers. He continues to create his artwork on canvas, digitally, and through merchandise and t-shirts, and he is active in supporting the arts throughout Cape Cod.
