Joseph Toney

Joseph Toney (he/him) honed his artistic practice growing up in Western North Carolina and earned a BFA from Appalachian State University. After exploring various locations in the West, he settled in Salt Lake City, Utah. Toney creates ultra-contemporary landscapes that reflect a deep connection to environmental issues, drawing inspiration from the vastness of the American West. His illustrative painting style reimagines these places with meticulous attention to detail, often drawing from experiences that span a day or even several weeks to portray a feeling rather than an exact depiction of a place.
