Mendelson Joe is the quintessential Canadian outsider artist.  Landscapes, social commentary, nudes, and portraits are all impassioned themes that M. Joe translates in his own unique and vivid style onto canvas.  His paintings are internationally recognized as outstanding, unique examples of contemporary Canadian art.

Art critic Gary Michael Dault writes:

"M. Joe does all the time, every day, what artists have now largely forgotten to do: paint what he sees, what he feels, what he thinks.  He also paints what he loves and paints what he hates.  For me, M. Joe is a one-man passion-play, a powerful and often disturbingly decisive delineator of the human condition."

In 1982, Mr. Joe began the self-commissioned series of portraits entitled "Working Women".  The series now numbers nearly 300 portraits and encompasses the broad range of vocations that women perform, such as a CF-18 pilot, judge, publishing magnate, boxer, and bank teller to name just a few.
