The print "BARB" shows Joe's expressive use of line in his typically metaphorical imagery. This newborn calf is full of natural wonderment, yet is hemmed in by barbed wire as a flock of crows fly freely overhead. Joe has produced many prints throughout his career. This five colour serigraph shows the subtlety of his approach to printmaking, creating the illusion of a soft conte drawing with progressive layers of ink. When commenting on why he chose the screen printing process for this image Joe said "I'd do a litho, but that would be too easy". "BARB" is a classic image for Joe, representing his constant challenge with both image and rocess.
