Jose Tanig Joya (1931 - 1995) was active/lived in Michigan, New York / Philippines. Jose Joya is known for Abstract expressionist easel painting, murals, teaching.

Born in Manila on June 3, 1931, Jose Joya is considered the pioneer and foremost abstract expressionist painter of the Philippines. His work is "characterized by calligraphic gestures and linear forces, and a sense of color vibrancy emanating from an Oriental sensibility." The spectrum of colors native to the tropical Philippine landscape are believed to have been the source of Joya's vibrant, yet harmonious palette. The greens of the rice paddies, the golds of the harvest fields, and the seemingly infinite hues of the Pahiyas festival, were some of the inspirations behind the artist's unique style of heavy impastos, spontaneous brushstrokes, bold textures, and unexpected splashes of color.
