Josh is proud to be a part of the Whangarei art community which is “full of so many lovely people and an exceptional amount of talent.”

The influences or subject matter Josh is attracted to are even more varied than the different mediums he likes such as nature, leaves, flowers, animals, landscapes, still life, the surreal, unusual, the underdog or the misunderstood.

“Try not to be discouraged by failure because it is an opportunity to reflect and improve for next time” art can be very challenging, so it is important to embrace the whole journey. “Some art is deeply personal, and other times it is not that serious”
