Hi, I’m Joe Hernandez, the visionary behind Tales and Canvas and one of the storytellers. I started Tales and Canvas with one simple idea: to share the love of stories and art that stay with us on a personal level, and keeps you coming back for another look. 

Available Now:

​​​

Tales Treasury:  Dive into a collection where each tale or poem is paired with its own special piece of art to complement each narrative. This is where the magic of storytelling truly shines! **Check back often as new stories will be added periodically**
