Joseph A. Koncelik

Joe Koncelik has been writing since grade school - and grade school was in the middle of the last century. His writings include professional works about design and drawing as well as fiction. In all, Koncelik has written 12 books - most available through Amazon. Writing is a cold weather activity; drawing and painting is a warm weather activity. These two forms of expression merge in book illustration and cover design. Writing is sheer joy. Visualization and image creation through drawing, painting and photography is euphoria. Koncelik vows to continue these activities until he is found slumped across his computer's keyboard or found staring blankly through unseeing eyes at an unfinished canvas. In essence, creativity and self-expression are life-affirming. One should never stop; ideas never cease to come to mind, embrace them and never stop personal expression.
