Joe Petruccio

Born 1958 in Brooklyn NY

Bringing the art of portraits to an entirely new level, Joe Petruccio has combined his drawing and painting skills to create a most fascinating and compelling style all his own. Perhaps it is Joe's love of pop culture, which has enabled him to capture rock icons and sports heroes so brilliantly, or maybe its simply his keen eye and sense of perspective. Ask Joe where the power comes from in his images, and hell tell you, I want to give the viewer of my work the best seat in the house. This artist is taking the music world by storm. He has signed on with Elvis Presley Enterprises as the Official licensed artist for Graceland. Joe is constantly adding to his Blue Suede Collection. This is his ever-growing series of paintings and drawings of Elvis Presley. Elvis has always been a driving force in Joe's life. He finds power and electricity from his music and turns it into art. Many say you can actually feel the presence of Elvis in his images.
Joe is highly respected and collected among many people in the music and entertainment industry. His work hangs in the collections of notables such as Dickey Betts(Allman Bros), Roger Daltrey (The Who), Sylvester Stallone and many many others.
Each year Joe...
